# Customizing Allergies & Medications

To set a custom allergy for a participant, follow these steps:

1. In the profile sidebar, locate the "Medical" section and select the "Edit" button next to it. This will allow you to modify the medical details of the participant.
2. Within the "Allergy List" section, you can either choose a preset allergy from the list or type a custom allergy directly into the input field. Press "Enter" on your keyboard to confirm the custom allergy. The custom allergy will then appear in a greyed box.
3. Similarly, you can customize medications by selecting from the preset options or entering a custom medication in the appropriate field.
4. Once you have set the custom allergy and/or medication, select the "Save" button to save the changes.

By customizing allergies and medications, you can ensure accurate and specific medical information for each participant in the system.
