Article Synopsis
- Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) can be classified into Type A (pharmacokinetics-related) and Type B (immune response-related), with Type B reactions being less well-defined and often categorized into immediate and delayed types.
- This review aims to explore the immunological mechanisms behind delayed hypersensitivity reactions to medications, highlighting their complexities.
- Findings discuss the classification, clinical signs, diagnosis, treatment plans, and overall prognosis of delayed hypersensitivity, emphasizing the need for prompt, tailored approaches by healthcare professionals.
Introduction: Aeroallergen exposure has an intra- and extra-domiciliary component and varies according to climatological zones. Mexico is a large country with a great variety of climates. A previous study (2009) evaluated skin prick test results (SPT) in different regions.

Objectives: To describe the immunological mechanisms of hypersensitivity reactions (HSR) to drugs, their epidemiology, risk factors, classification, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis.
