The possibility of anaphylactoid or contact-allergic reactions to corticosteroids should always be considered when the underlying disease deteriorates or specific signs of allergy or pseudoallergy appear during treatment with corticosteroids. Appropriate diagnostic procedures should be extensive enough to exclude hypersensitivity to other constituents of the commercial preparation used as well as multiple or cross-allergies to other corticosteroids.
