If you are not comfortable in extracting blood yourself then this test gives you the option to have your blood drawn at one of our clinical location. A drug allergy is the abnormal reaction of your immune system to a medication. Any medication - over-the-counter, prescription or herbal - is capable of inducing a drug allergy. However, a drug allergy is more likely with certain medications. The most common signs and symptoms of drug allergy are hives, rash or fever.
The allergist or nurse administers a small amount of a suspect drug to your skin either with a tiny needle that scratches the skin, an injection or a patch. A positive reaction to a test will cause a red, itchy, raised bump. A positive result suggests you may have a drug allergy.
Any medication can trigger an allergic reaction.
Common Drugs That Cause Allergies
There are also drug allergies that are very serious and dangerous to you if not quickly taken care of. Most drug allergies go away with time. One thing to keep in mind is that once you have an allergic reaction to a drug, you will probably always be allergic to that drug.
People with drug allergies may experience symptoms regardless of whether their medicine comes in liquid, pill or injectable form. If you feel confused about your symptoms and which medications are safe for you to take then it's time to take control and see an allergist.
