Allergy to Drugs

New England Journal of Medicine, 1951
THE seventeenth century must have been the nadir of therapeutics, if we can believe Moliere, for one of his characters remarks: "Almost everyone dies of the remedy, not the malady." Fortunately, si...

DRUG ALLERGIES

Primary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 1998
Allergic drug reactions are a significant cause of morbidity and mortality. Because it is difficult to identify the culprit drug and the underlying pathophysiologic mechanisms involved in these reactions, a systematic approach should be adopted in the evaluation of drug-allergic patients. Initially, the type of reaction should be determined.

Drug allergy

Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2010
Drug allergy is one type of adverse reaction to drugs and encompasses a spectrum of hypersensitivity reactions with heterogeneous mechanisms and clinical presentations. A thorough history is essential to the management of drug allergy. Laboratory testing has a very limited role in the management of drug allergy. Graded dose challenges and procedures to

Drug allergy

Medical Clinics of North America, 1992
Although allergic drug reactions are just one type of adverse reaction to medications, they are clinically very important because of the morbidity and mortality they cause. An ever-expanding pharmacopeia increases the potential for allergic drug reactions.

Eosinophilic Drug Allergy

Clinical Reviews in Allergy & Immunology, 2015
While peripheral or tissue eosinophilia may certainly characterize drug eruptions, this feature is hardly pathognomonic for a medication-induced etiology. While delayed drug hypersensitivity reactions with prominent eosinophilic recruitment have been typically classified as type IVb reactions, their pathophysiology is now known to be more complex ...

Drug Allergy Diagnosis

Immunology and Allergy Clinics of North America, 2014
Poorly documented and often self-reported drug hypersensitivity (DH) is a frequent problem in daily clinical practice and has a considerable impact on prescription choices. Little is known about the natural history of true DH. The suspicion of DH starts on clinical grounds.

Mechanisms of drug allergy

Immunology Today, 1998
Abstract Against the background of advances in our knowledge of antigen recognition at the molecular level, a recent meeting1The International Symposium on Adverse Drug Reactions with an Immunological Basis was held at Puerto de Santa Maria, Spain, on 19–22 November 1997. 1 reconsidered how the immune system recognizes and responds to drugs.

Desensitization for drug allergy

Current Opinion in Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2006
Desensitization for drug allergy is the induction of temporary clinical unresponsiveness to drug antigens. Gradual reintroduction of small doses of drug antigen at fixed time intervals allows for the delivery of full therapeutic doses, protecting patients from anaphylaxis.

HIV and drug allergy

Current Opinion in Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2001
Drug-related rashes have been estimated to be 100 times more common in HIV-positive patients than in the general population. The reasons for this are not clear, but are likely to be multifactorial, and include changes in drug metabolism, oxidative stress, cytokine profiles and immune hyperactivation.

The economics of drug allergy

Current Opinion in Allergy & Clinical Immunology, 2020
Purpose of reviewAs drug allergy research aims to inform clinical practice, implementation of best practices may be influenced by financial resources required to incorporate new interventions and the resulting clinical and economic returns on those resource investments.
