Anon - Thanks for writing and welcome to EmpowHER. Garlic allergies are fairly rare, but they present big problems for those who have them because many processed foods and foods prepared in restaurants use garlic. There isn't a specific medical treatment or cure for this. What most people do is make sure they carry over-the-counter remedies with them to treat the stomach and gastrointestinal symptoms if they get them after eating. It's not the most graceful solution but it does provide some relief.
Take care,
Pat
