Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the rising incidence of cefazolin allergy in patients who receive antibiotic prophylaxis prior to elective surgery.
- It employs the OpenBabel chemoinformatics toolbox to identify drugs structurally similar to cefazolin, focusing on a cohort of patients with confirmed cefazolin allergies.
- Findings reveal that 78% of allergic patients had prior exposure to cefazolin, suggesting that increased usage of this antibiotic since 2010 may be linked to the rise in allergy cases.
