4.1 Therapeutic indications
This medicinal product is indicated for the diagnosis of allergic (IgE
– mediated) diseases (type 1 in the
classification of Coombs and Gell).
4.2 Posology and method of administration
Taking a careful case history is a vital part of the investigation of
a patient with allergy symptoms since it
will usually identify those allergens most likely to be clinically
significant. Skin testing will help to
confirm the significance of the likely causative allergens, and
establish their relative importance.
The tests are usually carried out on the volar surface of the forearm:
In conditions of extreme outdoor
temperatures allow acclimatisation to room temperature: If test area
has been cleaned with water, alcohol
etc, wait at least two minutes to allow skin circulation to return to
normal.
Clean the skin with soap and water if necessary – but do not
sterilise with organic solvents or strong
antiseptics.
A ballpoint pen may be used to mark the skin (with suitable symbols)
adjacent to planned test sites to
identify the allergen and control solutions used.
The colours of the individual skin testing solutions vary depending on
the characteristics of the raw
material involved, e.g. pollens tend to be yellowish whilst dusts and
moulds, in particular, are shades of
brown.
Since each vial is used more than once, aseptic precautions must be
sufficient to avoid the risk of
microbial contamination.
Place one drop of each of the required test solutions on previously
marked skin areas, which should be at
least 4 cm apart. Puncture with a needle or blood lancet through
