ABSTRACT
This review focuses on the current applications of telemedicine for drug hypersensitivity reactions. Telemedicine holds promise as a tool to risk-stratify patients with drug hypersensitivity, for both evaluation of penicillin allergies and severe cutaneous adverse reactions. Although telemedicine may not fully replace in-person assessment owing to the need for testing, challenges, and in-person physical examination or skin biopsy, it may allow for risk stratification whereby some in-person visits may not be necessary. Electronic consults have also emerged along with telemedicine as a tool for drug allergy evaluations.
