The patient, or their legally authorized representative, has given their consent to participate in the study. The patient, or his legally authorized representative, has accepted the OIT treatment after the explanation of its risks and benefits and the requirements for the maintenance phase. The patient must, in the opinion of the investigator, be able to meet all the requirements of the study. The patient, or their legally authorized representative, who assumes the OIT treatment at home, has a Smartphone with internet access via mobile data and/or Wi-Fi available at home. Reaction with the OIT allergen in the controlled oral provocation test (POC) included in the initial phase of treatment. Exclusion Criteria: Present any of the OIT exclusion criteria: Allergy to cow's milk and/or eggs not mediated by IgE. Uncontrolled asthma. In the case of a patient with asthma, this must be controlled before the start of OIT. Severe atopic dermatitis. Previous diagnosis of eosinophilic esogaphitis. Inflammatory bowel disease. Mastocytosis. Immunocompromised patients. Disorders and/or treatments in which the use of adrenaline is contraindicated. Difficulty understanding the risks and benefits of the procedure, and social and family factors that may compromise long-term maintenance therapy. This includes conflicts between parents or legal representatives that may adversely affect treatment. Inability of parents or legal representative to follow instructions, identify reactions, or administer medication (especially auto-injectable adrenaline).
