Management of drug allergy
• Identify most likely drugs (based on history).
• Avoidance of identified drug or suspected drugs is essential.
• Perform allergy skin tests (if available).
• Avoid potential cross-reacting drugs (e.g. avoid Cephalosporins in penicillin-
allergic individuals).
• Use alternative medications, if at all possible.
• Desensitize to implicated drug, if this drug is deemed essential.(เริ่ มให้ จาก dose ต่ำๆภาย
