ADDENDA: *Regarding administering IV epinephrine - All patients receiving IV epinephrine must be placed on continuous cardiac monitoring due to the risk of arrhythmia. *Egg-allergic patients can often receive the influenza vaccine (should be preceded with skin testing), however the intranasal mist is absolutely contraindicated. *Red man syndrome can be prevented in most cases by slowing the infusion of vancomycin. *It is prudent to advise any patient with severe food allergies to avoid buffets, due to the high risk of cross-contamination.
