What Strategies Are Used to Manage Hypersensitivity Reactions?
Management strategies for HSRs include:
Pre-medication with antihistamines, corticosteroids, or antipyretics to prevent or reduce the severity of reactions. Slowing the infusion rate or temporarily discontinuing the drug if symptoms occur. Using alternative drugs or desensitization protocols for patients with a history of severe reactions. Close monitoring of vital signs and symptoms during and after drug administration.
