Abstract:
Scarlet red dye, commonly used in clinical situations, is very rarely involved in contact dermatitis. A single report of sensitivity appears in the prior literature. Two cases of scarlet red allergy are presented and documented by patch testing. Discussion is oriented to alert clinicians to the recognition and treatment of this potential complication.
