According to the Australasian Society of Clinical Immunology and Allergy (ASCIA), milk is a common cause of allergies in children, but is not common in adults.
In Australia and New Zealand around 2% (1 in 50) of babies are allergic to cow’s milk.

Most children outgrow cow’s milk allergy by the age of three to five years. However, in some people cow’s milk allergy may not be outgrown. Severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis) to cow’s milk can be life threatening, and should always be treated as medical emergencies that require immediate treatment with adrenaline (epinephrine).
