A member asked:

Tell me about neomycin allergy test?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Patch test: Involves placing a small cotton pad with neomycin onto the skin and taped in place for 48 to 72 hours. It may be a part of a commercially available patch test like true test. This can be done by many dermatologists or allergists.
