Natural History of Benign Nonimmediate Allergy to Beta-Lactams in Children: A Prospective Study in Retreated Patients After a Positive and a Negative Provocation Test

ConclusionsOur data strongly suggest that a fuDPT is safe and useful to assess tolerance acquisition in children with a confirmed benign nonimmediate BL allergy. In addition, our results support the use of a short DPT protocol (2 days), which led to a high NPV of 96.7% in our population, with a favorable benefit-risk balance.
