Drug-Induced Anaphylaxis in Children

Annamaria Bianchi,
Rocco Valluzzi,
Giuseppe Crisafulli
et al.

Abstract: Drug-induced anaphylaxis in children is less common than in adults and primarily involves beta-lactams and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Epidemiological studies show variable prevalence, influenced by age, gender, and atopic diseases. The pathophysiology includes IgE-mediated reactions and non-IgE mechanisms, like cytokine release reactions. We address drug-induced anaphylaxis in children, focusing on antibiotics, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, neuromuscular blocking agents, and monoclonal antib… Show more

“…Anaphylactic shock is a fatal allergic reaction ( Li et al, 2022 ). Compared to adult data, reports of drug-induced anaphylactic reactions (DIA) in children are rare ( Bianchi et al, 2024 ). DIA is primarily an IgE-mediated tachyphylactic reaction leading to the degranulation of mast cells and basophils and the release of pro-inflammatory mediators ( Pichler, 2003 ).…”

“…Topical, intramuscular, and intravenous routes of administration are more likely to cause allergic drug reactions than oral administration. Moreover, parental administration is associated with more severe reactions because of a more rapid absorption and presentation to immune system [ 80 , 129 , 131 ].…”
