Area of Science:

  • Pharmacology
  • Immunology
  • Clinical Medicine

Context:

  • Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) affect 1-3% of hospitalized patients.
  • Allergic and pseudoallergic reactions constitute 10% of ADRs.
  • Distinguishing between true allergic and pseudoallergic drug reactions is clinically significant.

Purpose:

  • To review current knowledge on allergic and pseudoallergic drug reactions.
  • To highlight the need for improved diagnostic tools.
  • To discuss epidemiological data, mechanisms, and diagnostic methods.

Summary:

  • Allergic reactions involve immunologic mechanisms, while pseudoallergic reactions mimic them without specific immune markers.
  • Current diagnostic and biological tools for these reactions require further validation.
