Hyper-accelerated immunotherapy with hymenoptera venoms. Immunotherapy with hymenoptera venoms can be done in 3.5 to 6 hours, in a hospital environment with the precaution of having made a threshold of cutaneous sensitivity. The 3.5 h technique should only be used for subjects who are weakly sensitive to wasp venom. The 6 h technique should be used for: Subjects with weak sensitisation to been and hornet venom. Those who are strongly sensitive to wasp venom. The 3 day technique should be used for those who are strongly sensitive to been and hornet venom. This division of the indications is essentially based on skin tests. By its use, systemic reactions or indeed anaphylaxis that may occur during desensitisation may be avoided.
