Comparing pharmacists versus allergists in low-risk penicillin allergy delabelling: The Hong Kong Penicillin Allergy Pharmacist Initiative (HK-PAPI)

Moreover, patients evaluated by pharmacists even reported significantly greater improvements in HR-QoL, highlighting the potential of multidisciplinary allergy initiatives.
