Is it time for #pharmacists to take the reins to ensure widespread penicillin allergy de-labeling? We believe indeed it is. buff.ly/2JV6QHP @blandman19 @Bruce_M_Jones @accpinfdprn
Our residents completed #PAAST training today with @BBookstaver_USC and @reagan_kiger! They’re ready to take the reins at @PalmettoHealth!
The majority of US hospitals (>100 surveyed) do not have sufficient resources for inpatient #penicillinallergy assessments! academic.oup.com/cid/advance-ar… #antibioticstewardship @VizientInc @MGH_ClinEpi @mgh_id @mgh_ast @MonganInstitute coauthors @Kuperrx @RWalensky @LucasTShulz
Jumping for joy because today we kicked off a Penicillin Allergy Assessment & Skin Testing program at a Prisma Health Internal Medicine Clinic. Thrilled to be taking this service to the outpatient world & thankful for some amazing colleagues that helped make this possible 💉💊
Great turnout despite the winter squal ❄️in Cheyenne, WY today for a Penicillin Allergy Assessment and Skin Testing (#PAAST) certificate program live session. Nathon Parker’s PCN skin testing team is growing! #PCNallergy

I think the tide is turning on that. Meaning cefazolin probably should be used unless cefazolin allergy. What do others think? Ps - great jama review jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/…
