Allergic Reactions to Drugs in Children
Keywords:
drug allergy, diagnosing drug allergy, drug hypersensitivity reactions, child.Abstract
Drug allergies are characterized by the occurrence of hypersensitive reactions to medications that have an immune mechanism of development. In such reactions, antibodies and/or activated T cells are directed against drugs or their metabolites. This problem is very relevant for practical healthcare, since more than 7% of the population suffers from drug allergies.
