Research summary
Plenty of studies have now established the safety of low-risk penicillin allergy de-labelling, but few have addressed how to organise de-labelling at the clinic level. This study will test the real world practicalities of running a de-labelling clinic optimised for maximum patient volume. The sheer number of patients with a penicillin allergy label, in contrast to relatively few allergy centres, makes demonstrating that such an approach can work extremely important for future antimicrobial stewardship.
