Desensitization to colecalciferol in 18 patients with immediate hypersensitivity reactions
Desensitization with oral vitamin D preparations has a crucial role for patients who can not receive vitamin D supplements by other ways. Vitamin D drop forms, which are better absorbed than capsule forms which contains the lowest units per/mL without the need to dilute the preparation, not contain any additives with HSRs potential such as gelatin and peanut oil are good option. Our 6-step desensitization protocol with oral drop of colecalciferol is a reliable protocol in patients with a history of vitamin D HSRs.
