What should I do if someone near me is going into anaphylactic shock?
If you are nearby when someone is having an anaphylactic reaction, call 911 or get medical help immediately. The person may need CPR as well.
Other ways to help:
- Lay the person flat, unless they’re having trouble breathing. In that case, help them sit up to make it easier to breathe.
- If the person is unconscious, put them on their side. Open up their airway by lifting their chin.
