Streamlining antibiotic use in community acquired pneumonia: A quality improvement initiative
Abstract Background Evidence suggests a 3‐day total duration and early transition to oral therapy is safe in hospitalized patients with community acquired pneumonia (CAP)—though such care is not standard in the United States. To implement these evidence‐based practices, a multidisciplinary group led by a hospitalist and antimicrobial stewardship ...

The influence of the carrier molecule on amoxicillin recognition by specific IgE in patients with immediate hypersensitivity reactions to betalactams [PDF]
10 p.-4 fig.-1 tab.The optimal recognition of penicillin determinants, including amoxicillin (AX), by specific IgE antibodies is widely believed to require covalent binding to a carrier molecule.

Dendrimeric Antigens for Passive Mast Cell Activation in the Evaluation of Amoxicillin Allergy
DeAns with defined nanoscale structure reveal that conjugate size and determinant density govern IgE‐mediated effector‐cell activation in AX allergy. All DeAn generations bind to sIgE in inhibition immunoassay, but only larger DeAns trigger FcεRI‐dependent responses in mouse MC, huRBL‐2H3, and LUVA cells.

Successful Application of the Mast Cell Activation Test in Immediate Hypersensitivity to Amoxicillin
This study included 28 amoxicillin‐allergic patients and 11 healthy exposed controls. Mast cells were differentiated from CD34+ progenitors over 8 weeks using cytokine cocktails. The mast cell activation test involved sensitization with patient or control sera and stimulation with free amoxicillin or G4/G5‐AXO dendrimers with successfully activated ...

Anaphylactic shock caused by an intradermal skin test-negative antibiotic during general anesthesia -A case report- [PDF]
Anaphylaxis during the perioperative period is rare, but it still causes severe cardiovascular and respiratory collapse that can be fatal. In particular, when using antibiotics that have a high risk of hypersensitivity reactions, it is important to ...

Hypersensitivity to Excipients in Drugs: An EAACI Position Paper
ABSTRACT Drugs contain active pharmaceutical ingredients and excipients, compounds which enhance the pharmacokinetics, stability and palatability of the pharmaceutical formulation. While most drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHR) are caused by active ingredients, excipients may also be involved.
