Avoiding peanuts, in the first instance. If you accidentally eat some peanuts and have a severe reaction, an injection of adrenaline into the muscle will quickly relieve the potentially fatal symptoms of anaphylactic shock. For this purpose, most sufferers will carry an "epipen" - a self-administered dose.
If you have a peanut allergy and you want to reduce the severity of your symptoms, studies are being made on the effect of incremental exposure to the allergen in the hope that the patient will develop a tolerance. However, these treatments are highly experimental, should only be attempted by medical professionals and - particularly in the case of a peanut allergy - could be fatal if administered incorrectly.
