    Area of Science:

    • Immunology
    • Endocrinology

    Context:

    • Insulin allergy is an uncommon complication of insulin therapy.
    • Reactions can range from mild local irritation to severe systemic responses.

    Purpose:

    • To review the mechanisms, diagnosis, and management of insulin allergy.
    • To discuss the role of different insulin preparations in allergic reactions.

    Summary:

    • Immediate insulin allergy involves IgE antibodies, while delayed reactions are often due to contaminants and fit Type IV hypersensitivity.
    • Factors like diathesis and prior insulin use history are crucial for diagnosis.
    • Management strategies include observation, desensitization, and utilizing monocomponent pork or human synthetic insulin.

    Impact:
