After she tolerated cefazolin therapy for 4 days, the medical staff concluded that her allergy history was inaccurate, and she was treated with intravenous ceftriaxone for suspected nosocomial pneumonia. Approximately 10 minutes after the start of the infusion, the patient experienced anaphylaxis. Initial symptoms of oral angioedema and laryngopharyngeal constriction progressed to dyspnea, tachypnea, hypotension, and tachycardia, all of which quickly resolved after immediate treatment with hydrocortisone, diphenhydramine, and epinephrine. Skin testing with cefazolin, cefepime, and ceftriaxone revealed that the likely allergic determinant mediating the patient's hypersensitivity reaction was the unique ceftriaxone R2 side chain and not the \u03b2\u2010lactam ring, which initially was suspected by the physician. Immunoglobulin E\u2010mediated hypersensitivity reactions to cephalosporins may occur due to antibody complexes with the \u03b2\u2010lactam ring or various cephalosporin side chains. Misconceptions regarding the nature of cephalosporin allergies complicate antibiotic selection for patients with questionable allergy histories and may lead to inappropriate drug reexposure and anaphylaxis. Detailed understanding of the antigenic determinants that mediate hypersensitivity reactions is essential for clinicians to avoid type 1 reactions in patients with a suspected allergy to cephalosporins.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1592\/phco.24.6.668.34753","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2004,6,11]],"date-time":"2004-06-11T11:20:59Z","timestamp":1086952859000},"page":"668-672","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":16,"title":["Cefazolin
