This brief review clearly establishes the fact that, although hypersensitivity reactions to diazepam and other benzodiazepines are rare, they are far from being undocumented.
Abstract
diazepoxide is also reported to have caused non-urticarial reactions.8 In most cases the abnormalities resolved after the offending agent was discontinued. However, rechallenge in some instances with the aetiological agent at a later date was rapidly followed by reappearance of the allergic reactions noted earlier. This brief review clearly establishes the fact that, although hypersensitivity reactions to diazepam and other benzodiazepines are rare, they are far from being undocumented.
