A member asked:
I've had psuedoallergies to nsaids. if i go thru a desensitization program for aspirin, does that also allow me to resume ibuprofen products?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Interesting.: If the desensitization is succesful for asa it will probably be succesful for the nsaids as well. Before attempting this it might be worthwhile to consider three meds which generally have very low potential to induce pseudoallergy: salsalate, choline magnesium trisalicylate , diflunisal . Ask your doc.
