Direct Amoxicillin Challenges for Penicillin Allergy Through Pediatric Primary Care Group Visits: A Pilot Study
Novel strategies are needed to expand equitable access to penicillin allergy testing. We performed a pilot study of penicillin allergy testing through direct challenges performed at pediatric primary care group office visits. Ninety-five percent of subjects were delabeled with no severe reactions noted, providing conceptual basis for further implementation studies.
