Discussion Scenario:
\nA 16-year-old boy comes to clinic with chief complaint of sore throat for 3 days. Denies fever or chills. Past medical history (PMH) is negative for recurrent colds, influenza, ear infections or pneumonias. No known drug allergies (NKDA) or food allergies. Physical exam reveals temperature of 99.6 F, pulse 78 and regular with respirations of 18. HEENT (Head , Ear, Eyes, Nose, and Throat) normal with exception of reddened posterior pharynx with white exudate on tonsils that are enlarged to 3+. Positive anterior and posterior cervical adenopathy. Rapid strep test performed in office was positive. His Healthcare provider wrote a prescription for amoxicillin 500 mg po q 12 hours x 10 days disp #20. He took the first capsule when he got home and immediately complained of swelling of his tongue and lips, difficulty breathing with audible wheezing. 911 was called and he was taken to the hospital, where he received emergency treatment for his allergic reaction.
