Public Information Needs and Interest in Specific Food and Drug Allergy Disorders in Germany (2022–2024): Google Search Engine Analysis Background: The prevalence of food and drug allergies has been steadily increasing in Germany. These conditions not only impair the quality of life of those affected but also place an additional burden on the healthcare system. At the same time, an increasing number of people are using the internet and other digital sources to seek health-related information. Objective: This study aimed to use the Google-AdWords-Keyword-Planner to identify the information needs and knowledge gaps of the internet-using population in Germany, thereby providing a foundation for future prevention and education strategies regarding food and drug allergies. Methods: Relevant keywords for selected food and drug allergies were extracted using the Google-AdWords-Keyword-Planner and analyzed according to various criteria. The observation period extended from September 2022 to October 2024. Results: A total of 633 keywords were identified for specific types of food and drug allergies, generating a combined search volume of 3,649,390 queries. The most frequently searched terms nationwide were “histamine allergy” (10.1% of the total search volume), “penicillin allergy” (7.3%), and “nut allergy” (2.8%). Although “histamine allergy” was the most frequently searched term in this analysis, most searches for “histamine” likely referred to an intolerance rather than a true IgE-mediated allergy. Seasonal patterns were also observed, with increased searches for “nut” and “penicillin” in the winter months and for “histamine” in the spring months. Conclusions: This study demonstrates the potential of Google search engine data analysis in a medical context and, in particular, underscores its relevance for understanding public interest in food and drug allergies in Germany. The findings highlight the need for improved, easily accessible educational resources and for implementing allergy-specific, socially relevant health campaigns to address the “unmet medical needs” of the population living in Germany regarding food and drug allergies.
