• Drug-induced enterocolitis syndrome (DIES), little known due to its recent description, is analogous to food protein–induced enterocolitis syndrome (FPIES). Both processes are more frequent in pediatric age and share diagnostic criteria, the main one being the appearance of persistent vomiting 1–4 hours after ingestion of the drug or food, in the absence of IgE-mediated allergy symptoms.
