The patient described feeling cold with worsening headache and chills approximately one hour after infusion of the first dose of penicillin. On examination, rigors, shallow inspirations, and chills were noted. He was afebrile, tachycardic, and tachypneic and had an oxygen saturation of 94% while breathing room air. His symptoms resolved within 10 minutes. Initially, this reaction was thought to be a result of a drug allergy, but upon further review, we determined that it was JHR.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n DISCUSSION<\/jats:title>\n It is not uncommon to confuse drug allergy with JHR. An objective causality assessment suggests that the JHR in our patient was probably related to penicillin. JHR is a self-limiting condition that warrants the continuation of antibiotic treatment in syphilis patients.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n CONCLUSIONS<\/jats:title>\n JHR should be an anticipated reaction to early doses of antibiotic treatment for treponemal diseases, such as syphilis. Treatment of JHR is largely supportive, such as administering antipyretic and antiinflammatory agents. Antibiotic treatment should be continued.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1345\/aph.1g308","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,11,15]],"date-time":"2005-11-15T22:18:22Z","timestamp":1132093102000},"page":"2128-2130","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":23,"title":["Penicillin-Induced Jarisch\u2013Herxheimer Reaction"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"39","author":[{"given":"Sharon","family":"See","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Sharon See PharmD, Associate Clinical Professor, College of Pharmacy and Allied Health Professions, St. John's University, Queens, NY; Clinical Faculty, Beth Israel Residency in Urban Family Practice, New York, NY"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Emilie K","family":"Scott","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Emilie K Scott MD, Family Medicine Resident, Beth Israel Residency in Urban Family Practice"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marc W","family":"Levin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Marc W Levin MD, Attending Faculty, Beth Israel Residency in Urban Family Practice"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2005,12,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-aph.1G308","volume-title":"DRUGDEX System","author":"Ferdosian F","year":"2005"},{"key":"bibr2-aph.1G308","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJM197607222950409"},{"key":"bibr3-aph.1G308","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1054\/jocn.2002.1129"},{"issue":"6","key":"bibr4-aph.1G308","first-page":"1","volume":"51","year":"2002","journal-title":"MMWR Morb Mortal Wkly Rep"},{"key":"bibr5-aph.1G308","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2165\/00003495-200262100-00003"},{"key":"bibr6-aph.1G308","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/infdis\/133.6.696"},{"key":"bibr7-aph.1G308","first-page":"136","volume":"46","author":"Skog E","year":"1966","journal-title":"Acta Derm Venereol"},{"key":"bibr8-aph.1G308","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/infdis\/146.5.606"},{"key":"bibr9-aph.1G308","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/jac\/41.suppl_1.25"},{"key":"bibr10-aph.1G308","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJM199608013350503"},{"key":"bibr11-aph.1G308","first-page":"15","volume":"48","author":"Gudjonsson H","year":"1968","journal-title":"Acta Derm Venereol"},{"issue":"2","key":"bibr12-aph.1G308","first-page":"172","volume":"2","author":"Brown ST.","year":"1976","journal-title":"J Am Vener Dis Assoc"},{"key":"bibr13-aph.1G308","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/clpt.1981.154"}],"container-title":["Annals of Pharmacotherapy"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1345\/aph.1G308","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1345\/aph.1G308","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1345\/aph.1G308","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,28]],"date-time":"2026-04-28T11:09:32Z","timestamp":1777374572000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1345\/aph.1G308"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2005,12]]},"references-count":13,"journal-issue":{"issue":"12","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2005,12]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1345\/aph.1G308"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1345\/aph.1g308","relation":{},"ISSN":["1060-0280","1542-6270"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1060-0280","type":"print"},{"value":"1542-6270","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2005,12]]}}}
