    Defining drug allergies in contrast to adverse effects & intolerances

    A drug allergy is a type of adverse drug reaction to a medication that occurs when your body's immune system overreacts to the medicine. Your body becomes sensitive to one of the drug's components, recognizing it as a potentially harmful foreign invader, much like bacteria or viruses. Your immune system creates antibodies to eliminate that medicine from your body if you take it again. 


    Allergic reactions to drugs can be life-threatening. If you or a loved one experiences severe medication allergy symptoms such as tongue or throat swelling, low blood pressure, breathing difficulties, rapid heartbeat, dizziness, or loss of consciousness, immediate action is necessary, Book drugs allergy test with Orange Health Labs now. Penicillin is responsible for the most common medication sensitivity. 

     

    Drug allergies account for 5 to 10% of adverse drug reactions. Over 90% of all negative drug reactions are attributed to side effects that do not involve the immune system. 


    Non-allergic reactions to medication are much more common than allergic reactions. These reactions are often predictable based on the properties of the drugs being administered and can manifest as various symptoms related to the specific medicine used. For instance, chemotherapy patients typically experience hair loss and nausea, while certain antibiotics may disrupt the digestive system, leading to diarrhoea and stomach cramps.

    The crucial role of drug allergy test 

    An individual can develop allergies to specific medications when their immune system reacts to the drug, producing antibodies against it. This results in the body recognizing the drug as harmful, leading to an allergic reaction. The drug allergy test is performed to ascertain if you've had an allergic reaction to a medication and to identify the specific medication responsible. This knowledge can help prevent potentially life-threatening incidents.

    Spotting signs of drug allergies: From rashes to anaphylaxis 

    Typically, an adverse reaction to medication begins shortly after consumption, with the severity varying from person to person. Symptoms of an adverse reaction may include:

    • Itching (pruritus) 

    • Eczema 

    • Hives 

    • Runny nose 

    • Angioedema or swelling  

    Severe drug allergies may manifest as anaphylaxis, a potentially fatal severe allergic reaction characterised by symptoms such as:

    • Dysphagia (difficulty swallowing) 

    • Breathing difficulty 

    • Vertigo 

    • Hypotensive state 

    • Increased heart rate 

    • A shaky or unpleasant feeling 

    • Unconsciousness 

    Evaluating the need for a medication allergy testing in Hyderabad

    A medication allergy testing enables doctors to determine whether you are allergic to a particular medication. If your immune system reacts adversely to a drug, it may result in symptoms like watery eyes, rashes, fever, shortness of breath, low blood pressure, or hives. If you've experienced any of these symptoms in the past after taking a drug, it's crucial to undergo a drug allergy panel test promptly.

    The Orange Health Lab’s drug allergy panel test can help determine whether you have a drug allergy.
