1/5 Here is a thread with some slides from a presentation I gave about anaphylaxis to Polyethylene Glycol or PEG. These are "hidden" allergens that can cause very nasty anaphylaxis. #FOAMed

As requested by @jfdwolff for @AcmeDR
2/5 A packet of "laxido" sat on my desk for quite a while after that case until I realised that I might be conveying the wrong impression to visitors!
3/5 Thanks for letting me use your gun slide @hypoxicchicken
4/5 Tricky allergens to avoid and to investigate. In my view it is the worst drug allergy to have and this is the only case where my patient has an Adrenaline Autoinjector to keep with him in case of accidental exposure.
5/5 Photo not me btw - I have been asked! Hope this helps.
