Slide 2-

The injectants (injectable preparations and insects) cause allergy in a hypersensitive person, allergic condition is known as injectant allergy. Defining Injectant Allergy
Slide 3-

Injections Insects as source of natural injectant allergens Injections: Allergic reactions to penicillin injections are well known to most of the lay public. Anaphylactic reactions to penicillin occur with a frequency of 1-5 per 10,000 patient- courses of penicillin. Skin test for penicillin allergy is of definite value, but test must be conducted under control Injectant Allergy: Source
Slide 4-

6-Amino penicillinic acid (6-APA) and 7- Aminocephalosporanic acid (7-ACA), as well as semisynthetic penicillin's and cephalosporin, cause positive intra-cutaneous reactions in most susceptible persons. For this reasons, such antibiotics as the cephalosporin's and semisynthetic penicillin’s should be used with caution by the physicians treating patients that are sensitive to penicillin G.
Slide 5-

In addition to penicillin products, other injectables may cause allergies such as liver extract, antitoxins, and the glandular products.
Slide 6-

The allergic reaction is generalized in case of injections, because the injectant allergens enter the blood stream and circulate throughout the body. Injectant Allergy: Allergic Reactions
Slide 7-

The symptoms in each case are similar to those of the antibiotics; Itching of the plams of the hands and the soles of the feet Erythema (redness of skin) Peeling of skin are characteristic. Injectant Allergy: Symptoms
Slide 8-

Bees, hornets and wasps and similar insects are considered as source of injectant allergens. Stings of such insects can induce severe reactions. In fact it has been estimated that more people die annually from bee sitting and wasps sting than from snakebites. Injectant Allergy: Insects as source of natural injectant allergens
Slide 9-

Such patient can be immunized by using injections of antigens because one antigen is common to all bees and wasps. Research is being conducted on this subject at the present time. Whole insects extracts have been made to determine the optimal method of treatment.
Slide 10-

Bitting arthropods are also subjected to clinical trails among these spiders, mites, lice, chiggers, ticks, sand flies, horse flies, scorpions, centipedes and numerous others indigenous to geographic areas are investigated.
Slide 11-

Allergic reactions: stings of insects can induce severe local and constitutional reactions sometimes causing death.
