The Updated AAAAI Guidelines on Drug Allergies
The Updated AAAAI Guidelines on Drug Allergies
Drug allergies are a common challenge for all prescribers, patients, and pharmacies. They are associated with increased costs, adverse effects, and extended hospitalizations. Join host Geoff Wall as he reviews the newly released AAAI guidelines on drug allergies.
The GameChanger
Over 90% of patients claiming a penicillin allergy are not allergic. Sulfamethoxazole desensitization is largely not needed. A thorough evaluation of patient allergies with testing may help establish true allergies in patients and help optimize pharmacotherapy.
