β-lactam antibiotics (BLAs) are still the antibiotics of first choice for the treatment of many bacterial infections. Treatment with a BLA is often hindered by a suspected allergy, up to 10% of the population report an allergy to penicillin. After Position Paper allergological evaluation of the suspected allergic reaction to a BLA, most patients show a low probability of a BLA allergy; only in a minority of cases an allergic reaction to the repeated administration of a BLA appear likely in view of the previous history. In > 90% of cases, the suspected BLA allergy can be ruled out by allergy diagnostics. We recommend a risk-stratified approach in the context of an urgent need for BLA, which should enable most patients to receive a BLA therapy. After acute therapy, allergy diagnostics have to be done to clearly prove or reliably rule out a BLA allergy.Correspondence to:
