Addressing Penicillin Allergies in Primary Care - Frankly Speaking Ep 356
b'Credits: 0.25 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit\\u2122\\xa0CME/CE Information and Claim Credit: https://www.pri-med.com/online-education/podcast/frankly-speaking-cme-356\\nOverview: Patient-reported penicillin allergies are common; however, more than 95% of such patients have negative penicillin allergy testing and will tolerate subsequent antibiotic use. Currently, disproving a penicillin allergy includes negative skin testing followed by an oral challenge, which is considered the gold standard to remove the penicillin allergy label, as skin testing alone lacks 100% negative predictive value. Recent reports have suggested that low-risk individuals can be assessed with a direct oral challenge, but the safety and efficacy of such an approach has not been rigorously studied. Listen in as expert faculty discuss a recent randomized controlled trial that validates such an approach.\\nEpisode resource links:\\nTrubiano JA, Vogrin S, Chua KYL et al.
