Algorithm to identify patients at low risk for penicillin allergy

 
 

This patient is definitely allergic to this medication.

This patient must avoid this medication.

They should have a medical alert bracelet, and have this information on their emergency information on their cell phone (if they have one).

This allergy should be added to their medical record:

  • Family MD’s record

  • Hospital record (hospital EMR)

  • Pharmacy record (to be registered with pharmacare)
