Abstract
BACKGROUND Arylpropionic acid derivatives (APs) are the main triggers of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) hypersensitivity. Data on clinical patterns and risk factors for AP hypersensitivity in children are quite limited. AIM To assess the clinical characteristics and potential risk factors for proven AP hypersensitivity in children. METHOD Patients with a history of AP hypersensitivity were retrospectively assessed using a standardized diagnostic algorithm. Children with confirmed hypersensitivity were defined as selective responders or cross-intolerants based on the result of drug provocation tests and further categorized according to the EAACI/ENDA classification. A multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to analyze the potential risk factors for proven AP hypersensitivity. RESULTS A total of 166 patients (51.2% male, median age of six years) with a history of AP hypersensitivity were included. Ibuprofen (89.2%) was the most frequently reported AP in the patients' histories. The reported hypersensitivity of 40 (22.4%) patients was confirmed by diagnostic testing: eight (13.6%) patients with a history of reaction only to APs and 32 (29.9%) patients with a history of reactions to multiple NSAIDs, including chemically unrelated NSAIDs in addition to APs. Five (12.5%) patients were classified as selective responders and 35 (87.5%) were cross-intolerants. Overall, five (12.5%) of the confirmed cases could not be categorized according to the EAACI/ENDA classification. Older age (aOR: 1.11, 95% CI 1.02-1.21, p = 0.015), chronic urticaria as an underlying disease (aOR: 2.87, 95% CI 1.09-7.54, p = 0.033) and a history of anaphylaxis (aOR: 7.84, 95% CI 1.86-33.04, p = 0.005) were related to confirmed AP hypersensitivity. CONCLUSION Almost a quarter of children and adolescents were confirmed to have AP hypersensitivity. Older age, the presence of chronic urticaria and a history of anaphylaxis were potential risk factors for proven AP hypersensitivity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ibuprofen, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), is the most frequent medication to be involved in hypersensitivity drug reactions (HDRs). Other analgesic/anti-inflammatory drugs in the arylpropionic group are also relevant, albeit to a lesser extent. Ibuprofen is widely consumed by people of all ages, both on medical prescription and over the counter; moreover, it is an organic contaminant of surface waters and foods. While numerous drugs cause HDR, ibuprofen's underlying mechanisms are more intricate and involve both specific immunological and non-immunological mediated reactions. SUMMARY we concentrate on immediate responses, including urticaria with or without angioedema, anaphylaxis, and angioedema, classifying reactions according to whether they are caused by single or multiple NSAIDs and based on the mechanisms at play. Both groups may experience anaphylaxis, defined as an immediate, severe systemic reaction involving at least two organs, though the frequency and severity can vary. Following this classification, more clinical manifestations can be identified. Diagnosis is partly based on a detailed clinical history, including information about ibuprofen and/or other arylpropionic derivatives involved, the interval between drug intake and symptoms onset, clinical manifestations, number of episodes, and the patient's tolerance or response to other medications - mainly non-chemically related NSAID - both before and after reactions to ibuprofen and/or other arylpropionic drugs. A drug provocation test is frequently necessary to make a diagnosis. KEY MESSAGE Because ibuprofen is the most widely prescribed NSAID, it is reasonable to assume its role as the leading cause of HDR will only become more important.

Abstract
Background: Different recommendations for the classification of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug hypersensitivity reactions (NSHSR) in children have been reported but a shortage still exists. Objective: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the inclusivity of two European Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (EAACI) position paper classifications and to characterize the factors that underlie classification discordance in children. Methods: Patients with a history of NSHSR were evaluated with a standardized diagnostic protocol according to EAACI/ European Network for Drug Allergy (ENDA) recommendations. Children were classified and compared according to the EAACI 2013 and the pediatric EAACI/ENDA 2018 classifications. Subjects who were unclassified and those who were classified were compared. Results: Of 232 patients (median [interquartile range] age 6 years (4-11 years) with a history of NSHSR, 52 (22.4%) were confirmed with diagnostic tests. Thirty-six (69.2%) were classified as having cross-intolerance, whereas 16 patients (30.8%) were classified as selective responders. Eleven of the confirmed cases (21.2%) could not be categorized according to the 2013 EAACI classification, whereas this number was six adolescents (11.5%) when the 2018 EAACI/ENDA pediatric classification was used. Patients who were unclassified and who were all cross-intolerant were more likely to have atopic sensitization (p = 0.001) and asthma as an underlying disease (p = 0.03), higher serum eosinophil count (p = 0.022), and total immunoglobulin E levels (p = 0.007) compared with those who fit well into the classification. In multivariate regression analysis, the presence of atopic sensitization (adjusted odds ratio 20.36 [95% confidence interval, 2.14-193.48]; p = 0.009) was found to be the only significant underlying factor for an unclassified and/or blended phenotype. Conclusion: The 2013 EAACI classification resulted in a high rate of subjects who were unclassified. Despite better clinical utility, the recent pediatric EAACI/ENDA classification system still has shortcomings in terms of inclusivity for adolescents. Mostly, children with underlying allergic diseases could not be classified by the current guidelines. We propose to classify them as a separate pediatric cross-intolerance subgroup because the underlying mechanism may involve more than cyclooxygenase 1 inhibition.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To provide a review of available literature regarding nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) hypersensitivity with an emphasis on more recent findings. RECENT FINDINGS Oral provocation tests with aspirin are important for diagnosis and management in adult and pediatric populations with reported NSAID hypersensitivity. Risk of cross-reactivity to COX-2 inhibitors varies by NSAID hypersensitivity phenotype. COX-2 inhibitors are tolerated in aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease. Reported NSAID allergy is associated with a higher risk of a substance use disorder. Effective treatment of underlying chronic spontaneous urticaria can allow tolerance of NSAIDs in NSAID-exacerbated cutaneous disease. The pathophysiology, cross-reactivity, and appropriate diagnostic evaluation differ between the 5 distinct NSAID hypersensitivity phenotypes. Further research into the pathophysiology of NSAID hypersensitivity in patients with and without underlying disease is needed.

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.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) outpatient challenge protocols are not standardized. They vary in clinical practice and can be time- and resource-intensive to perform. OBJECTIVE To investigate the safety and outcomes of two-step outpatient NSAID challenges to evaluate patients with non-aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD)-related NSAID hypersensitivity. METHODS We conducted a retrospective study of patients with a history of NSAID allergy who underwent outpatient NSAID challenges under allergist supervision. Individuals with AERD were excluded. Patient demographics, NSAID reaction history, and drug challenge details and outcomes were collected. RESULTS A total of 249 patients (mean age, 51.6 years; 63.5% female) underwent 262 NSAID challenges. Of these, 224 challenges were negative (85.5%). Thirty challenges resulted in an immediate reaction during the challenge procedure (11.5%) and eight resulted in delayed reactions (3.1%). Three individuals with immediate reactions required treatment with intramuscular epinephrine. Factors associated with a positive NSAID challenge included a prior reaction occurring within 5 years of drug challenge (odds ratio [OR] = 3.66; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.67-8.44), a prior immediate reaction within 3 hours of NSAID ingestion (OR = 2.45; 95% CI, 1.12-5.57), a history of cross-reactive NSAID hypersensitivity to multiple NSAIDs (OR = 2.97; 95% CI, 1.23-6.91), and the presence of comorbid chronic spontaneous urticaria (OR = 2.95; 95% CI, 1.35-6.41). CONCLUSIONS More than 85% of two-step non-AERD NSAID drug challenges were negative for an immediate or delayed reaction, which allowed patients to use at least one clinically indicated NSAID. Challenge reactions were generally mild. Two-step NSAID challenge protocols can be safely performed in the outpatient setting.

Lack of Major Involvement of Common CYP2C Gene Polymorphisms in the Risk of Developing Cross-Hypersensitivity to NSAIDs. Front Pharmacol 2021; 12:648262.

Abstract
Cross-hypersensitivity to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is a relatively common, non-allergic, adverse drug event triggered by two or more chemically unrelated NSAIDs. Current evidence point to COX-1 inhibition as one of the main factors in its etiopathogenesis. Evidence also suggests that the risk is dose-dependent. Therefore it could be speculated that individuals with impaired NSAID biodisposition might be at increased risk of developing cross-hypersensitivity to NSAIDs. We analyzed common functional gene variants for CYP2C8, CYP2C9, and CYP2C19 in a large cohort composed of 499 patients with cross-hypersensitivity to NSAIDs and 624 healthy individuals who tolerated NSAIDs. Patients were analyzed as a whole group and subdivided in three groups according to the main enzymes involved in the metabolism of the culprit drugs as follows: CYP2C9, aceclofenac, indomethacin, naproxen, piroxicam, meloxicam, lornoxicam, and celecoxib; CYP2C8 plus CYP2C9, ibuprofen and diclofenac; CYP2C19 plus CYP2C9, metamizole. Genotype calls ranged from 94 to 99%. No statistically significant differences between patients and controls were identified in this study, either for allele frequencies, diplotypes, or inferred phenotypes. After patient stratification according to the enzymes involved in the metabolism of the culprit drugs, or according to the clinical presentation of the hypersensitivity reaction, we identified weak significant associations of a lower frequency (as compared to that of control subjects) of CYP2C8*3/*3 genotypes in patients receiving NSAIDs that are predominantly CYP2C9 substrates, and in patients with NSAIDs-exacerbated cutaneous disease. However, these associations lost significance after False Discovery Rate correction for multiple comparisons. Taking together these findings and the statistical power of this cohort, we conclude that there is no evidence of a major implication of the major functional CYP2C polymorphisms analyzed in this study and the risk of developing cross-hypersensitivity to NSAIDs. This argues against the hypothesis of a dose-dependent COX-1 inhibition as the main underlying mechanism for this adverse drug event and suggests that pre-emptive genotyping aiming at drug selection should have a low practical utility for cross-hypersensitivity to NSAIDs.

Abstract
Background/aim Drug provocation tests (DPTs) are the gold standard method performed at the end of a stepwise approach in a drug allergy workup. Drug provocation tests are administered as a single drug on a test day. Testing more than one drug in a day is a feasible option and could be a safe and time- and manpower-saving procedure in well-selected patients. The aim of the present study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of performing a DPT with two or three alternative drugs in one test day (Hacettepe method). Materials and methods Adult patients who were admitted with drug hypersensitivity between August 2010 and December 2016 and underwent DPTs with the described method were included. The method was based on performing DPTs with two or three different, alternative drugs on the same test day. Data was obtained from standard drug provocation test forms and from patient files. Results A total of 1448 DPTs were performed by the Hacettepe method in 1131 patients. The reaction rate was 5.45% (n = 79), and none of the reactions were severe. The Hacettepe method saved 19.95 DPTs per month which was a considerable time savings. Conclusion In cases of proven drug hypersensitivity reactions, performing a drug provocation test with a combination of two or three different, alternative drugs instead of one saved time and manpower and was a safe procedure. We recommend implementing this method in drug allergy workups.

Abstract
Drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHRs) are adverse reactions to a drug. In children, most common drugs inducing such reactions include beta-lactams (BLs) and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). The aim of the present work was to provide current knowledge on the management of DHRs in the pediatric population, focusing on BLs and NSAIDs hypersensitivity. The clinical feature of DHRs include immediate and non-immediate (delayed and accelerated) reactions, that may be severe or non-severe. A systematic approach to the patient based on the reported clinical history is essential to organize a safe and adapted allergy work-up. Skin tests are the first step to assess a possible DHRs, especially in immediate reactions to BLs. Drugs concentrations for these tests are standardized and validated. The drug provocation test remains the gold standard to reach a firm diagnosis. In selected cases, a therapeutic desensitization protocol may be proposed in children with a confirmed diagnosis of drug hypersensitivity. Clinicians should be aware of the diagnostic and therapeutic options, to provide the best management in children having experienced a history of DHR. (www.actabiomedica.it)

New phenotypes in hypersensitivity reactions to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Curr Opin Allergy Clin Immunol 2020; 19:302-307.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) is one of the most frequently prescribed medications in the medical field, and hypersensitivity to NSAID is a common adverse drug reaction encountered. However, NSAID hypersensitivity presents a variety of symptoms caused by diverse pharmacological and immunological mechanisms. RECENT FINDINGS Owing to the heterogeneity of the disease, a new concept for the classification of NSAID hypersensitivity has recently been proposed to diagnose and manage NSAID hypersensitivity for personalized treatment. Acute and delayed reactions were distinguished in this classification, and identification of symptoms and speculation of putative mechanisms help physicians make the right diagnosis. NSAID-exacerbated respiratory disease is a noticeable phenotype of NSAID hypersensitivity that involves upper airway comorbidities (chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps) as well as asthmatic features. The cutaneous phenotypes of NSAID hypersensitivity occur, and cross-reactivity with other types of NSAID should be considered in establishing a proper diagnosis. Hypersensitivity to a single NSAID can present urticaria/angioedema and anaphylaxis, in which an IgE-mediated immune response is suggested to be a prime mechanism. Management of NSAID hypersensitivity reactions includes avoidance, pharmacological treatment following standard guidelines, and aspirin desensitization. SUMMARY The classification, diagnosis, and management of NSAID hypersensitivity should be individually reached by identifying its phenotype.

Results of NSAID provocation tests and difficulties in the classification of children with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug hypersensitivity. Ann Allergy Asthma Immunol 2020; 125:202-207. [PMID: 32294526 DOI: 10.1016/j.anai.2020.04.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/04/2020] [Revised: 03/28/2020] [Accepted: 04/02/2020] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are commonly used in children and can frequently cause hypersensitivity reactions. Rates of confirmed NSAID hypersensitivity (NSAID-H) in children are low. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the results of drug provocation tests (DPTs) with NSAIDs and to evaluate the difficulties encountered in the classification of NSAID-H in children. METHODS The study included patients with suspected NSAID-H who were examined in our clinic between January 1, 2015, and December 31, 2018. Oral provocation tests with NSAIDs were performed and reactions were classified according to the European Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology position paper on NSAID-H. RESULTS A total of 243 patients (57.2% male patients) presented with suspected NSAID-H during the study period. Of these, 168 patients (69.1%) had a history of reaction to ibuprofen. Isolated skin involvement was the most frequent symptom (86%). A total of 238 DPTs were performed with the suspected agents and 34 had positive results. The families of 12 patients refused provocation testing with the suspected agent or aspirin and these patients could not be diagnosed. Of the 231 patients, 47 patients (20.3%) received a diagnosis of NSAID-H. Twenty patients with NSAID-H could not be classified because their guardians did not consent to further testing with aspirin. CONCLUSION Performing diagnostic tests is important in patients with no contraindications. Characterizing these reactions in children can be difficult because of the coexistence of indistinguishable symptoms in their history and DPTs, as well as the need for multiple provocation tests. Therefore, further research is needed on this subject.

Abstract
Background: This pharmacovigilance study was conducted in Amravati region of central India to identify the nature and prevalence of adverse drug reactions, which will be helpful for better drug prescription practice and management of diseases. Materials and Methods: Adverse drug reaction reporting forms from April 2016 to March 2019, were collected from the pharmacovigilance center, which include details of demographics, investigations, concomitant drug history, and details of present complaints including reaction details, onset, recovery, drug information, hospitalization, management, and assessment. Results: A total of 19 cases were reported. Approximately 47.4% male and 52.6% female experienced the reactions with age-group ranging from 15 to 75 years. The most common adverse drug reactions were caused by antimicrobial agents (47.6%) followed by other group of drugs (37%) and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (15.9%). Polypharmacy was the most common cause (31.6%) with the most common route being intravenous (42.1%). Skin reactions were the most common (84.2%). Antitubercular drugs were more commonly responsible for exfoliative lesions, whereas paracetamol and unknown drugs were responsible for multiple ulcerative lesions. Reactions to antitubercular drugs were considered as possible (15.8%), whereas with other drugs (63.2%), it was probable. Conclusion: It is a tip of the iceberg, which provides important demographic details in which adverse drug reactions were reported. Cutaneous reactions due to common drugs are responsible for hospitalization of the patients. There is an urgent need of training for health-care providers so that reporting can be improved and better picture can emerge.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diagnosis of hypersensitivity (HS) reactions to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) in children is complex. The real prevalence of NSAID HS remains unknown because a drug provocation test (DPT) is not always performed with the culprit NSAID. OBJECTIVE To describe and compare the diagnostic workup among different European centers and to find out the real proportion of NSAID HS by performing a DPT with the culprit drug. METHODS We retrospectively collected data from children (0-10 years) and adolescents (10-18 years) with a history of NSAID reactions and who underwent a complete allergy workup including DPTs with the culprit in 6 different pediatric centers: Belgrade, Florence, Geneva, Madrid, Porto, and Rome. RESULTS A total of 693 children with a history of NSAID reactions were enrolled, and a total of 526 DPTs were performed with the culprit NSAID. The diagnosis of NSAID HS was confirmed in 19.6% (103 of 526) of children by performing a DPT with the culprit drug. The major differences in the allergy workup among the 6 centers concerned the duration of the DPT and the practical use of skin tests for diagnosing NSAID HS. In addition, the use of acetyl salicylic acid to differentiate single reactor or cross-intolerance patients is not common, except in Spain. CONCLUSION The value of this study is that although different approaches are used around Europe to diagnose NSAID HS, we found that the percentage of confirmed NSAID HS is less than 20%. This highlights the importance of the DPT in confirming or excluding NSAID HS in the pediatric population.

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
BACKGROUND The oral provocation test (OPT) with culprit drug is the gold standard in the diagnosis of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug hypersensitivity (NSAID-H). Some authors have proposed that the total number of OPTs required to diagnose NSAID-H is much lower with acetyl salicylic acid (ASA) provocations, regardless of patients' reaction history, and less time consuming. OBJECTIVE This study aims to evaluate the total number of OPTs required to confirm NSAID-H according to the drugs (ASA or culprit NSAID) used in the initial OPT. METHODS The study included patients with a history of NSAID-H. Data on the demographic and clinical features, coexisting chronic or allergic disease, and laboratory results were collected from medical records. The drug used for the initial OPT (ASA or culprit NSAID), results of the OPT, and the total number of OPTs were reviewed. RESULTS We included 56 children with suspected hypersensitivity reaction to NSAIDs. NSAID-H was confirmed in 21 children (37.5%). We calculated that if all OPTs were performed with culprit drugs as an initial choice, the number of OPTs required for diagnosis would be 3 or more in 85.7% of positive cases. The number of episodes was an independent risk factor for NSAID-H by multiple logistic regression analysis (odds ratio, 4.3; 95% confidence interval, 1.48-12.24; P = .007). CONCLUSION Performing an initial OPT with ASA regardless of patients' reaction history can result in much lower numbers of OPT to diagnose NSAID-H and can improve patient compliance.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Pediatric drug hypersensitivity is a rapidly evolving field. The purpose of this paper is to review the current state of pediatric drug hypersensitivity and highlight new developments in diagnosis and management. RECENT FINDINGS This paper will discuss the safety and use of risk stratification to proceed directly to oral challenge without prior skin testing for β-lactam reactions. We review unique aspects of pediatric drug challenges and desensitizations. It is important to accurately diagnose pediatric drug hypersensitivity reactions through a detailed history, physical examination, and available diagnostic testing. Understanding of the underlying mechanism leads to appropriate classification which is necessary to direct management. The decision to perform drug challenge, desensitization, or recommend avoidance of a medication can have a significant impact on a patient's treatment. Utilization of weight-based dose and infusion rate adjustments for current drug challenge and desensitization protocols optimize success.

Abstract
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are available as over-the-counter drugs, and they are commonly used in children for their antipyretic, analgesic, and anti-inflammatory effects. NSAIDs are among the most frequently reported drugs associated with hypersensitivity reactions and even with anaphylaxis. A complete evaluation of the patients based on reported clinical manifestations, timing of the reaction, the presence of underlying disease, and reactions to other NSAIDs allows clinicians to stratify children with a history of reaction to NSAIDs. Although NSAID-induced hypersensitivity reactions have mainly been investigated in adults, recent studies have aimed to explore their epidemiology in the pediatric population. This review will cover the current understanding of clinical manifestations, the risk factors, and the different phenotypes of NSAID-induced hypersensitivity reactions with a comprehensive overview of the epidemiologic data from past to present and the practical approach to the management of NSAID hypersensitivity in children and adolescents.

Abstract
NSAID-exacerbated respiratory disease (N-ERD) is a chronic eosinophilic, inflammatory disorder of the respiratory tract occurring in patients with asthma and/or chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), symptoms of which are exacerbated by NSAIDs, including aspirin. Despite some progress in understanding of the pathophysiology of the syndrome, which affects 1/10 of patients with asthma and rhinosinusitis, it remains a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. In order to provide evidence-based recommendations for the diagnosis and management of N-ERD, a panel of international experts was called by the EAACI Asthma Section. The document summarizes current knowledge on the pathophysiology and clinical presentation of N-ERD pointing at significant heterogeneity of this syndrome. Critically evaluating the usefulness of diagnostic tools available, the paper offers practical algorithm for the diagnosis of N-ERD. Recommendations for the most effective management of a patient with N-ERD stressing the potential high morbidity and severity of the underlying asthma and rhinosinusitis are discussed and proposed. Newly described sub-phenotypes and emerging sub-endotypes of N-ERD are potentially relevant for new and more specific (eg, biological) treatment modalities. Finally, the document defines major gaps in our knowledge on N-ERD and unmet needs, which should be addressed in the future.

Abstract
Drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHRs) in childhood are mainly caused by betalactam or non-betalactam antibiotics, and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Laboratory tests for identifying children who are allergic to drugs have low diagnostic accuracy and predictive value. The gold standard to diagnose DHR is represented by the drug provocation test (DPT), that aims of ascertaining the causative role of an allergen and evaluating the tolerance to the suspected drug. Different protocols through the administration of divided increasing doses have been postulated according to the type of drug and the onset of the reaction (immediate or non immediate reactions). DPT protocols differ in doses and time interval between doses. In this position paper, the Italian Pediatric Society for Allergy and Immunology provides a practical guide for provocation test to antibiotics and NSAIDs in children and adolescents.

Abstract
Background Adverse drug reactions (ADR) to analgesics (i.e., non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug hypersensitivity, NSAID-HS) are one of the most common ADR, affecting approximately 1.6% of all patients. Despite the fact that they are common, they still pose a diagnostic challenge. Methods This article is an overview of selected scientific articles and is based on research in PubMed, specialist databases, and guidelines. Results Approximately 80% of side effects are pharmacologically predictable and are classified as type A reactions, such as abdominal pain and bleeding events. More advanced diagnostic investigations are not useful in such cases. Type B reactions, which account for the remaining 20%, are subdivided into the far more frequent cross-reactive, non-immunological NSAID-HS (acronyms NERD [NSAID exacerbated respiratory disease], NECD [NSAID exacerbated cutaneous disease], NIUA [NSAID-induced urticaria/angioedema]) and the much rarer true drug allergies of type I and IV (acronyms SNIUAA [single NSAID-induced urticara/angioedema or anaphylaxis] and SNIDR [single NSAID-induced delayed reaction]). The two latter are not cross-reactive and all other NSAIDs are generally well tolerated. Conclusion The diagnostic work-up begins with a detailed patient's history. Skin tests are only useful in SNIDR and SNIUAA, while in vitro tests are helpful merely in exceptional cases. In general, the diagnosis can only be confirmed by provocation testing, when required. Although cross-reactivity is usually present, provocation testing is often able to find an alternative, tolerable analgesic. Individual patient management usually enables a solution to be found for most patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Clinical features of aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD) consist of moderate to severe asthma associated with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS), which are derived from overproduction of cysteinyl leukotrienes along with chronic type 2 mediated inflammation in the upper and lower airway mucosa. Area covered: This review provides recent up-to-date information regarding phenotypes of AERD and encompasses comprehensive diagnostic methods and treatment options. To confirm the diagnosis of AERD, provocation testing via nasal, inhalation or the oral route of aspirin remains the gold standard; in vitro diagnostic methods are still not available. Essential management is to avoid cross-reacting cyclooxygenase 1 (COX-1) inhibitors along with use of highly selective COX-2 inhibitors and to maintain pharmacologic treatment depending on the severity of asthma and chronic rhinosinusitis. Recent biologics, including anti-IgE and anti-IL5 antibodies, are required in severe AERD patients with CRS. Aspirin desensitization can be recommended when indicated. Expert commentary: AERD is a heterogeneous disease in terms of severity and associated allergic disease. When performing diagnosis and treatment for AERD, such disease characteristics need to be kept in mind.
