1/ @MGHAllergy @BWHAllergy @vumc_cdsi_rsch #vaccine and #drugallergy experts provide a clear and concise approach to safely evaluate those with a history of #anaphylaxis and anyone with an #allergicreaction reaction to the first dose of @Pfizer or @Moderna #CovidVaccine. 2/ See our updated manuscript @JACIInPractice that includes information on #skintesting using non-irritating skin test concentrations to #PEG and #polysorbate and when to consider #skintesting jaci-inpractice.org/action/showPdf…

1/ New guidelines from the @US_HAEA Advisory Board are now available @JACIInPractice. We provide an update on classification, diagnosis, on-demand/prophylactic tx with special considerations for women/children along with guidance on development of a comprehensive management plan. 2/#HAE can be broadly divided into #HAE due to C1INH deficiency (type 1 and type 2) and HAE with normal labs (4 mutations now identified - factor XII, plasminogen,
angiopoetin-1, and kininogen). Early diagnosis is critical. If you suspect send C4, C1INH level and function.

1/ As #Allergists, built upon the recommendations of U.S. regulatory agencies, we can provide clear steps to the medical community on how to safely administer both doses of the #COVID vaccine in individuals with #allergic histories. #AIMedEd jaci-inpractice.org/article/S2213-… 2/ Neither the #PfizerBioNTech nor #Moderna #COVID19 mRNA vaccines are formulated with any food, drugs, or latex, but both contain the excipient #PEG. However, to date, confirmation that PEG is the cause of reactions to #CovidVaccines is lacking.
