1 Management of drug allergy PART II

2 Outline General management Beta lactam allergy NSAIDs allergy

3 General management Refer to allergist for confirm or find safe alternative drug Especially 1. Beta-lactam antibiotics 2. Local and general anaesthesia Stop, avoid culprit and cross reactive drug 3. Radiocontrast media Supportive & symptomatic treatment Drug allergy card

4 General management Non Immediate immediate reaction reaction Anaphylaxis : Epinephrine Urticaria, Angioedema : Antihistamine Symptomatic (body & mind) and multidisciplinary care

5 Please consider risk and benefit ratio before start procedure Pre-medication Desensitization Graded challenge Non IgE, immediate (Anaphylactoid) High probability IgE mediated Low probability Condition stable High molecular weight drugs eg. contrast media, monoclonal antibody Produce temporary tolerance Confirm or exclude Steroid, Antihistamine, Aspirin, Paracetamol Start 1/100,000-1/10,000, > 10 steps Start 1/100-1/10, 3-5 steps Discontinue drug and treatment Hold drug, treatment and go on with modified protocol Discontinue test, treatment and diagnosis Cernadas et al, Desensitization for drug hypersensitivity, Allergy 2010 Santos & Galva õ,monoclonal Antibodies Hypersensitivity, Immunol Allergy Clin N Am 37 (2017)

6 cap caps Graded challenge Drug provocation test Desensitization

7 In some situations What should I do? Pregnancy with VDRL positive and history of penicillin allergy Coronary syndrome with history of aspirin allergy

8 Outline General management Beta lactam allergy NSAIDs allergy

9 Beta lactam allergy Increase hospital stay Increase cost Increase rate of serious drug resistance Su et al, Clin transl allergy (2017) 7:18 A. Sangasapasviliya et al, J Med Assoc Thai Vol. 93 Suppl

10 Beta lactam allergy Penicillin metabolized to -benzylpenicilloyl (major determinant) Penicilloyl polylysine (PPL, pre-pen ) -benzylpenicilloate & benzylpenilloate (minor determinants) Skin test panel Major determinant Minor determinant Penicillin G sodium Amoxicillin Ampicillin Skin test panel Penicillin G sodium Amoxicillin Ampicillin and DPT all cases In immediate reaction : skin test had NPV > 95, sensitivity 70% In delayed reaction : limited data, sensitivity 30% In immediate reaction : skin test without PPL had lower NPV Bob Geng,Utility of minor determinants in penicillin allergy skin testing.

14 Penicillin allergy in pregnancy Recommendation in 2010 STD treatment No proven alternatives to penicillin are available for treating neurosyphilis, congenital syphilis, or syphilis in pregnant women Full battery penicillin skin test available : Major determinant, MDM Positive Desensitization Negative Give penicillin Full battery penicillin skin test unavailable Major determonant, PGS Positive Negative Desensitization Graded challenge Unavailable major determinant IgE mediated : Desensitization non IgE mediated : Graded challenge

16 Beta lactam allergy What is the reaction? Urticaria Presence of danger signs? No Duration? 1 hr and It s gone without any scar 24 years-old Penicillin allergic history since childhood Plan to elective surgery (GYN) OB doctor need cefazolin for prevention wound infection A. Skin test penicillin B. Skin test cefazolin C. Graded challenge cefazolin D. Desensitization cefazolin E. Give cefazolin routinely F. Suggest avoid cefazolin

17 Cases Allergic to penicillin Need penicillin Need cephalosporin In situation that penicillin skin test, skilled Skin pharmacist test to penicillin or allergist not Skin available test to penicillin Before you start graded IF 4 challenge YES / desensitization please answer 4 questions Negative : Give penicillin Positive YOU YOU HAVE : Avoid HAVE or 3 OPTIONS 3 OPTIONS Negative : Give cephalosporin Is the patient really need this antibiotics? you can do graded challenge or Desensitization desensitization Graded challenge Positive : Alternative drug, Graded challenge cephalosporin, Desensitisation to cephalosporin Is current status stable? Did the Skin previous test to penicillin reaction was not anaphylaxis, SCARs or Negative organ specific IF Desensitization : Give penicillin eg. any cytopenia NO, serum sickness? Allergic to cephalosporin Positive : Alternative drug, Positive : Alternative drug, Is the patient/dr. understand and accept risk of procedure? Skin test to new cephalosporin Negative : Graded challenge Suggest Desensitization Alternative : use to penicillin alternative antibiotics antibiotics Alternative antibiotics Desensitisation to cephalosporin Har & Solensky Penicillin and Beta-Lactam Hypersensitivity, Immunol Allergy Clin N Am(2017)

26 Take home message We are 0.3% of Thai doctors but we appreciate to help all of you. Patient safety is very important Only stop culprit drug that decrease mortality Encourage to drug allergy work up esp. penicillin
