Diagnosing hypersensitivity reactions to cephalosporins in children.
OBJECTIVES The goals were to evaluate the usefulness of skin tests, patch tests, serum specific IgE assays, and challenges in diagnosing hypersensitivity reactions to cephalosporins and to clarify the pathogenic mechanism of such reactions. METHODS Children with immediate manifestations (within 1 hour) underwent immediate-reading skin tests with penicillin reagents and any suspect cephalospor...
متن کاملIgE-mediated hypersensitivity reactions to cannabis in laboratory personnel.
BACKGROUND There have been sporadic reports of hypersensitivity reactions to plants of the Cannabinaceae family (hemp and hops), but it has remained unclear whether these reactions are immunologic or nonimmunologic in nature. OBJECTIVE We examined the IgE-binding and histamine-releasing properties of hashish and marijuana extracts by CAP-FEIA and a basophil histamine release test. METHODS T...
متن کاملIgE-mediated hypersensitivity to cephalosporins: cross-reactivity and tolerability of penicillins, monobactams, and carbapenems.
BACKGROUND There have been few studies regarding the cross-reactivity and tolerability of penicillins, aztreonam, and carbapenems in large samples of subjects with cephalosporin allergy. OBJECTIVE We sought to evaluate the possibility of using penicillins, monobactams, and carbapenems in subjects with cephalosporin allergy who especially require them. METHODS We conducted a prospective stud...
متن کاملDiagnosis and Management of Immediate Hypersensitivity Reactions to Cephalosporins
Cephalosporins are one of the most commonly prescribed classes of antibiotics. Immediate IgE-mediated hypersensitivity reactions have been reported with use of a specific cephalosporin, as a cross-reaction between different cephalosporins or as a cross-reaction to other β-lactam antibiotics, namely, penicillin. Historically, frequent reports of anaphylaxis following administration of first- and...
متن کاملHypersensitivity reactions to metronidazole.
BACKGROUND Hypersensitivity reactions to metronidazole are infrequently described. However, we believe that such reactions are increasing due to growing use of the drug for the treatment of amebiasis and anaerobe infections combined with other antibiotics. The present study assesses the need for oral provocation in patients with probable hypersensitivity reactions to metronidazole. METHODS We...
