Penicillin delabeling
Penicillin allergy delabeling has undergone a renaissance in recent years. In the years after the return to the market of benzylpenicilloyl polylysine for skin testing in 2009, there have been local, national, and international campaigns to educate clinicians and the public on the large number of individuals inappropriately labeled as penicillin allergic. With a careful clinical history, many patients with a penicillin allergy label can be classified as “low risk,” indicating their risk of having anaphylaxis or a severe cutaneous reaction is low.

Feedback on “Delabeling penicillin allergy in a pediatric primary care clinic”
Although I read the article by Chow et al1 with interest, I think it is important to point out that we have published a study2 in which penicillin allergy challenges were performed in the primary care pediatric setting. In fact, we performed direct challenges on 20 subjects, very similar to the experience reported in the study by Chow et al.1 It is hoped these 2 reports will encourage other primary care pediatric practices to engage in direct penicillin challenges in patients at low risk to lessen the burden of mislabeled penicillin allergy.

Penicillin Allergy: Mechanisms, Diagnosis, and Management
Prim Care. 2023 Jun;50(2):221-235. doi: 10.1016/j.pop.2022.11.002. Epub 2023 Feb 26.ABSTRACTAllergy to penicillin can occur via any of the 4 types of Gel-Coombs hypersensitivity reactions, producing distinct clinical histories and physical examination findings. Treatments include penicillin discontinuation, and depending on the type of reaction, epinephrine, antihistamines, and/or glucocorticoids. Most beta-lactams may be safely used in penicillin-allergic patients, with the possible exception of first-generation and second-generation cephalosporins. Penicillin testing includes skin testing, patch testing, and graded chall...

Inaccurate penicillin allergy labels: Consequences, solutions, and opportunities for rhinologists
Conclusions: This study demonstrates that temperature-controlled radiofrequency treatment of SSB hypertrophy is well-tolerated and effective at reducing both SSB size and symptoms of NAO at 3 months post-treatment.

The association between penicillin allergy and surgical site infection after orthopedic surgeries: a retrospective cohort study
ConclusionCompared to patients without PA, patients with PA developed more SSI after orthopedic surgeries, especially deep SSI. The elevated infection rate could be secondary to the use of alternative prophylactic antibiotics

Delabelling penicillin allergy is not rocket science
Up to 10% of children are labelled as ‘penicillin allergic’,1 in most cases before they even start school.2 However, following comprehensive allergy assessment, around 95% of penicillin allergy labels are found to be incorrect.3 Why this discordance? In children, the label may be applied following emergence of a viral exanthem (in those where symptoms were viral triggered), or due to non-allergic adverse events to the antibiotic which may be in part dependent on viral-antibiotic interactions (for instance, Ebstein-Barr infection and amoxicillin). In addition, sensitisation to penicillins wanes over time, with a...

Barriers to paediatric penicillin allergy de-labelling in UK secondary care: a regional survey
Conclusions The deficiency in antibiotic allergy-focused history among paediatric clinicians highlights the need for better allergy education across all clinical grades. Pragmatic algorithms and clear referral pathways could address barriers faced by non-allergists in de-labelling incorrect penicillin allergy.

An interdisciplinary student-led multifaceted intervention addressing overuse of broad-spectrum antibiotics for patients with penicillin allergies
ConclusionsAn intervention focused on educating prescribers and CDS strategies delivered through the EMR increased appropriate β-lactam prescribing for patients with a documented low-risk PCN allergy and reduced the use of nonspecific PCN allergy reaction type in EMR documentation.

allergy to penicillin - no beta-lactam antibiotics?
Anasthesiol Intensivmed Notfallmed Schmerzther. 2023 Apr;58(4):264-266. doi: 10.1055/a-1933-2408. Epub 2023 Apr 12.ABSTRACTDrug allergies are frequently reported by patients undergoing pre-anesthesia evaluation, potentially resulting in a suboptimal treatment with alternative substances. While about 10% of patients report to be allergic to penicillin, less than 1% have a true IgE-mediated allergy. Multiple factors contribute to this large prevalence, such as misinterpretations of common gastrointestinal side effects as “allergic”, a history of penicillin treatment for infectious mononucleosis resulting in skin rashes, ...
