allergy Immediate reactions with glatiramer acetate: Diagnosis of allergy and desensitization protocols By cp.neurology.org Published On :: 2020-04-06T12:45:20-07:00 Purpose of review Diverse adverse events have been associated with administration of glatiramer acetate (GA), mainly local reactions at the injection site. Other, less frequent generalized reactions include isolated postinjection reactions and anaphylaxis, which may lead to discontinuation of GA. Recent findings Close collaboration between the allergy and neurology departments is needed to study adverse reactions to GA. The allergy study should include a detailed history and skin prick and intradermal tests with GA and, if possible, determination of specific IgE levels. Furthermore, the implication of other drugs should be ruled out. Summary An accurate diagnosis of reactions to GA is essential if we are to confirm or rule out allergy to GA. When an allergy diagnosis is confirmed or firmly suspected based on clinical evidence, desensitization protocols are increasingly seen as safe methods for reintroduction of GA. Full Article
allergy Peanut Allergy: New Advances and Ongoing Controversies By pediatrics.aappublications.org Published On :: 2020-05-01T01:00:46-07:00 Peanut allergy is one of the most common food allergies in children, with increasing prevalence over time. The dual-allergen exposure hypothesis now supports transcutaneous sensitization to peanut as a likely pathophysiologic mechanism for peanut allergy development. As a result, there is emerging evidence that early peanut introduction has a role in peanut allergy prevention. Current first-line diagnostic tests for peanut allergy have limited specificity, which may be enhanced with emerging tools such as component-resolved diagnostics. Although management of peanut allergy includes avoidance and carrying an epinephrine autoinjector, risk of fatal anaphylaxis is extremely low, and there is minimal risk related to cutaneous or inhalational exposure. Quality of life in children with peanut allergy requires significant focus. Moving forward, oral and epicutaneous immunotherapy are emerging and exciting tools that may have a role to play in desensitization to peanut. Full Article

allergy How to determine which allergy medicine works best for you By www.businessinsider.in Published On :: 9 May 2020, 01:48 The three main types of allergy medicine are antihistamines, corticosteroid nasal sprays, and decongestants.
