Episode 586: It’s time to challenge penicillin allergy labels

In episode 586, Mike and James invite Émélie Braschi back to the podcast to talk about the tricky issue of how to deal with a potential penicillin allergy. Believe it or not there are a couple of RCTs looking at this issue. These two trials compared oral challenge alone to skin testing followed (if negative) by oral challenge. The results may allow you to change your practice in a good way. Tune in and find out why.
