No consumption of IgE antibody in serum during allergic drug anaphylaxis

Background:  The general understanding is that a blood sample for analysis of immunoglobulin (Ig) E antibodies to an allergen suspected to cause an anaphylaxis cannot be drawn until several weeks after the reaction. As this is most unpractical, the changes in IgE antibody levels during anaphylaxis were studied to evaluate the possibility of using samples drawn at the time of the reaction.
