Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to estimate the prevalence of penicillin allergy, evaluate the diagnostic value of the allergologic work-up used in the study, and the health effects of penicillin allergy.
Detailed Description:
Penicillin allergy is the most common of self-reported drug allergies and un-verified penicillin allergy is a significant and growing public health problem. 10% of all patients report penicillin allergy. However, there is large discrepancy between reported penicillin allergy and true allergy. Despite its high prevalence, greater than 90% of such patients are in fact able to tolerate the medication without allergic reactions.
In this study patients having a penicillin allergy label will be investigated to confirm or to exclude the allergy diagnosis. The diagnostic value of the allergen test panel and the allergologic work-up will be evaluated. Clinical parameters as well as immunological will be assessed.
