  • It's important to note that not everyone who is sensitive to a particular food will have an idiosyncratic reaction, and the severity and type of reaction can vary greatly from person to person. (thecornerplot.blog)
  • Unlike other food sensitivities, which are caused by an immune system response to a specific food protein, idiosyncratic reactions are unpredictable and can vary widely from person to person. (thecornerplot.blog)
  • Diagnosing an idiosyncratic food sensitivity reaction can be challenging as these reactions do not follow a typical pattern and may not be caused by a specific food protein or allergen. (thecornerplot.blog)
  • An anaphylactic reaction is due primarily to the release of histamine from IgE sensitized mast cells. (dentalcare.com)

  • An 'adverse drug reaction' (ADR) is the clinical response of a patient to a drug, defined here as "An appreciably harmful or unpleasant reaction, resulting from an intervention related to the use of a medicinal product, which predicts hazard from future administration and warrants prevention or specific treatment, or alteration of the drug regimen, or withdrawal of the product" [ 1 ].

  • For example, certain foods may contain natural substances such as histamine or tyramine that may cause a reaction in some people. (thecornerplot.blog)
  • Thus, patients with recent reactions are more likely to be allergic than patients with remote reactions, and patients who had allergic reactions in the distant past might no longer be reactive. (cdc.gov)
