The suspected allergy to beta-lactam antibiotics, especially penicillin and amoxicillin, is the most frequent reason for consultation in Child Allergy Units. In this consensus document, the clinical and diagnostic criteria of allergic reactions are described, as well as alternative antibiotic treatment for the most common infections diagnosed in paediatrics for patients with known or suspected allergy.

This article describes aspects concerning the etiology, pathogenesis and clinical manifestations of these processes; it presents three paediatric cases, namely STS (Steven Johnson Syndrome), TEN (toxic epidermal necrolysis), probably related to amoxicillin/clavulanate and ibuprofen and DRESS (a drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms) secondary to phenytoin; and in relation to them, the diagnosis and the treatment of these processes are discussed and reviewed. The AGEP (acute generalised exanthematous pustulosis) is also reviewed.

Background: Limited published evidence shows oral desensitization to be a potential intervention option for cow's milk protein (CMPs) allergy.
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of oral desensitization in 2-year-old children with cow's milk allergy, as a treatment alternative to elimination diet.
Methods: A total of 60 children aged 24-36 months with IgE-mediated allergy to CMPs were included in this multi-center study and were randomized into two groups.

Background: The aim of the present study is to assess whether a single determination of the fraction of exhaled nitric oxide (FENO), added to the measurements usually taken during a routine checkup, helps in the prediction of the recurrence of asthma attacks in controlled patients who are not receiving any baseline treatment; and whether or not treatment of the said latent inflammation is appropriate.
Methods: Observational study of prospective cohorts. Over a period of three months, data was collected from 28 patients (6 to 14 years) who met the conditions of the inclusion criteria, with a follow up appointment after six months.

The results of the cutaneous tests with fungus, and the repercussion of the fungal allergens in asthma via inhalatory route has been a controversial subject for many years. The lack of characterization, purification and standardization of the allergens make the results of the cutaneous tests highly variable. The diagnostic value of the bronchial provocation test (BPT) in asthma, associated with suspicious fungal hypersensitivity, correctly performed with adequate controls and concentrations of non-irritant fungal allergens has been emphasized by various authors.
