Abstract
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are among the most frequently administered drugs, mainly for their anti-pyretic, but also for pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory effects in children. NSAIDs are composed of structurally divergent subgroups of drugs with similar pharmacological and adverse effects. Aspirin originates from salicin and was the first synthesized analgesic. As a prototype of NSAIDs; aspirin-induced hypersensitivity reactions were first reported, but subsequently, other phenotypes of hypersensitivity reactions were also described with aspirin and other NSAIDs. There are certain challenging aspects of NSAID-hypersensitivity in the pediatric population that need to be further investigated. These include the effect of age on drug metabolism and the natural history of the various phenotypes of NSAID-hypersensitivity, the effect of certain co-factors (infections, exercise) on NSAID-hypersensitivity, and diagnostic clinical and laboratory biomarkers clarifying the endotypes. In recent years, a non-negligible number of case series, studies and expert panel reports have been published in this field with some novel features and diagnostic modalities in the pediatric population. With the current review; the clinical phenotypes and diagnostic and management modalities of suspected NSAID-induced hypersensitivity reactions in childhood and adolescence were explained and updated by examining past and current publications.

Usefulness of the drug allergy passport in the drug allergy management. Postepy Dermatol Alergol 2021; 38:433-439. [PMID: 34377124 PMCID: PMC8330863 DOI: 10.5114/ada.2021.107930] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2019] [Accepted: 01/14/2020] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction Nowadays, the number of people with drug hypersensitivity has been increasing and it has become a major problem for the healthcare system. Unfortunately, not everyone is aware of which medications they can safely use. Aim To assess the suitability of a drug allergy passport in patients with drug hypersensitivity in order to increase knowledge about medicines that can be safely used. Material and methods The study was conducted in 54 hospitalized patients with confirmed hypersensitivity to drugs by issuing a drug passport at discharge. The study was carried out with the questionnaire method. The questionnaire was conducted by phone 3, 6 and 12 months after the patients received the drug passport. Results Fifty-eight people were contacted by phone. The survey was conducted in 54 people (42 women (77%), mean age: 48, range: 19-71), which gives a response rate of 98%. The application of the drug allergy passport by patients increased with time and the number of patients who did not use their passport decreased. With time, patients showed the drug allergy passport to a larger number of doctors, most often to general practitioners and dentists. In the following months, the number of doctors who followed passport recommendations and patients who adhered to the passport recommendations increased. Conclusions The analysis of drug allergy passport shows that patients are better informed about medicines they can use and have a greater sense of security. By showing the passport to specialists, they choose the safest and adequate treatment.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hypersensitivity to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is of great concern because they are frequently encountered in daily clinical practice. Drug provocation tests (DPTs) are particularly needed for NSAIDs. METHODS The aim of this retrospective study was to detect eliciting dose thresholds during NSAIDs DPT in order to suggest optimal step doses, using the survival analysis method. Our secondary objective was to describe subgroups at higher risk during DPT and evaluate the safety of our 30 minutes incremental 1-day protocol. The study comprised all the patients attended the Allergy of the University Hospital of Montpellier (France), between 1997 and 2017 for a suspicion of drug hypersensitivity reaction to NSAIDs. RESULTS Throughout the study period, 311 positive DPT were analyzed (accounting for 285 hypersensitive patients). We identified eliciting thresholds (dose and time), and we suggest the following steps for future DPT: for the rapid absorption group (acetylsalicylic acid, ibuprofen, ketoprofen, and tiaprofenic acid), every 30 minutes: 20%-30%-50% of daily therapeutic dose, for the moderate absorption group, every 30 minutes: for diclofenac 5%-15%-30%-50%, and for celecoxib, 20%-80%. For the slow absorption group, piroxicam, 25%-75%, was separated by a 3-hours interval. A surveillance period of 3 hours after the last dose is mandatory for patients. CONCLUSION Drug provocation test protocols for NSAID are empirical, driven by the knowledge on patterns of DHR, cross-reactivity between NSAID and pharmacological effects of these all drugs. This is the second experience in improving DPT protocols, after BL (B-lactam) antibiotics.

Abstract
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are the leading cause of hypersensitivity drug reactions. The different chemical structures, cyclooxygenase 1 (COX-1) and/or COX-2 inhibitors, are taken at all ages and some can be easily obtained over the counter. Vasoactive inflammatory mediators like histamine and leukotriene metabolites can produce local/systemic effects. Responders can be selective (SR), IgE or T-cell mediated, or cross-intolerant (CI). Inhibition of the COX pathway is the common mechanism in CI, with the skin being the most frequent organ involved, followed by the lung and/or the nose. An important number of cases have skin and respiratory involvement, with systemic manifestations ranging from mild to severe anaphylaxis. Among SR, this is the most frequent entity, often being severe. Recent years have seen an increase in reactions involving the skin, with many cases having urticaria and/or angioedema in the absence of chronic urticaria. Aspirin, the classical drug involved, has now been replaced by other NSAIDs, with ibuprofen being the universal culprit. For CI, no in vivo/in vitro diagnostic methods exist and controlled administration is the only option unless the cases evaluated report repetitive and consistent episodes with different NSAIDs. In SR, skin testing (patch and intradermal) with 24-48 reading can be useful, mainly for delayed T-cell responses. Acetyl salicylic acid (ASA) is the test drug to establish the diagnosis and confirm/exclude CI by controlled administration. Desensitization to ASA has been extensively used in respiratory cases though it can also be applied in those cases where it is required.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Microemulsions are thermodynamically stable translucent systems widely used for systemic delivery of drugs. The present study is the first to analyze the biotechnological potential of microemulsion systems for therapeutic purposes, through transdermal route, for pain treatment. AREAS COVERED Patents were searched in the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), European Patent Office (Espacenet), United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) and National Institute of Intellectual Property (INPI). The inclusion criteria were published patents containing the keywords; 'microemulsion' and 'transdermal' in their title or abstract. 208 patents were found. However, only those patents which mentioned in their abstract or in their description the use of microemulsion system (object of invention) for pain treatment were selected. Were excluded duplicate patents and those that did not report pharmacological use of MEs specifically for pain treatment. Thus, sixteen patents were selected and described in the present study. EXPERT OPINION Patents were found that focused specifically on the development process of microemulsion systems, the inclusion of essential oils in microemulsions, which place microemulsions as delivery systems for NSAIDs and other substances, as well as microemulsions for transdermal administration. These studies reinforce the therapeutic applicability of MEs in the treatment of acute and chronic pain.

Abstract
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are commonly used in the pediatric population as antipyretics/analgesics and anti-inflammatory medications. Hypersensitivity (HS) reactions to NSAID in this age group, while similar to adults, have unique diagnostic and management issues. Although slowly accumulating, published data in this age group are still relatively rare and lacking a unifying consensus. This work is a summary of current knowledge and consensus recommendations utilizing both published data and expert opinion from the European Network of Drug Allergy (ENDA) and the Drug Hypersensitivity interest group in the European Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (EAACI). This position paper summarizes diagnostic and management guidelines for children and adolescents with NSAIDs hypersensitivity.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are the most frequently involved in drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHR). NSAIDs are prescribed for different processes and some NSAIDs can be obtained over the counter. Areas covered: We analyse the practical approaches for managing and treating NSAID-DHR considering the five major groups of entities recognised, divided into two categories: those responding to strong COX-1 inhibitors and possibly weak COX-1 or selective COX-2 inhibitors named cross-intolerant (CI), and those induced by a single drug or drug group with good tolerance to strong COX-1 inhibitors, known as allergic reactions (SR). An analysis of the recent literature indicates that two approaches can be followed for CI: to give acetyl salicylic acid to confirm NSAID hypersensitivity or to give alternative drugs to provide a solution for the treatment of pain, fever, inflammation or other conditions. Desensitisation approaches have been undertaken, but mainly for CI cases with respiratory airway involvement and they are very rarely used for CI with cutaneous involvement or SR. Expert commentary: DHR to NSAIDs are now recognised as one of the most important problems in the evaluation and management of drug allergy. Because no diagnostic tests exist, important resources are needed to evaluate these patients.
