Drug hypersensitivity: Mechanisms and opportunities of laboratory diagnostics by N. V. Bychkova

“…Moreover, interaction of drugs with immune receptors of lymphocytes, according to the Pichler’s pharmaco-immune concept, has been identified, along with quick impact of drugs directly upon receptors of effector cells and signaling cascades without primary sensitization, which was previously termed as “pseudo-allergy”. To optimize therapy and prevent repeated reactions in the patients with drug hypersensitivity, high-quality diagnostics with detection of the causal allergen is required. …”
