Fourteen patients with allergy to drugs (4 to synthetic corticotrophin, 3 to insulin, 4 to pyramidon, 2 to penicillin, and 1 to iodine-containing contrast media) were submitted to specific desensitizing treatment using graduated doses of the drug. Therapy was completely successful in 11 of 14 cases: in one case, the authors were forced to suspend treatment because the patient allergic to pyramidon had become pregnant; in the other cases (allergic to corticotrophin and to penicillin) the treatment was suspended because of severe adverse reactions. On the basis of the present findings, immunotherapy in drug allergy is possible and should not present any special problems: it is necessary that the treatment be carried out by highly qualified staff and preferably on hospitalized patients.
