Introduction: The drug provocation test (DPT) is the gold standard for the drug allergy workup; however, it is not free from severe adverse reactions. Our aim was to obtain robust data that predict a reaction during or after the DPT at the first contact with the patient in the allergy outpatient clinic.

Methods: The population of this cross-sectional study comprised all patients undergoing a drug allergy workup (clinical assessment, specific IgE, or skin tests, or DPT) at University Hospital Fundacion Alcorcon in 2016.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focused on identifying factors that contribute to the failure of asthma treatment step-down in patients with moderate to severe asthma who were on a combination therapy of inhaled glucocorticoids and long-acting beta agonists.
  • Results showed that 41.7% of patients experienced step-down failure, with significant factors including older age, multiple comorbidities, severity of asthma, and a short duration of previous asthma control.
  • The conclusion emphasizes that successful step-down is more likely when patients have maintained asthma control for over 6 months, suggesting that careful consideration is needed before adjusting treatment.

Objective: We carried out a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies that assess the influence of BBs and ACEIs on anaphylaxis.
