Immunotherapy of lidocaine allergy by intravenous desensitization using IFN‐gamma from a case: Overcoming impediments using IFN‐gamma during desensitization
Abstract:Key Clinical Message
Anaphylactic reaction to lidocaine has been reported during a dental procedure. In this trial, a patient who required local anesthesia for dental treatment was desensitized successfully to intravenous lidocaine using IFN‐gamma. Practical general protocols and principles are suggested for the general application of this method for other intravenous drugs.
