BACKGROUND: Existing literature has questioned the sensitivity of patch testing (PT) with cotrimoxazole (CTX) in the study of drug hypersensitivity.
OBJECTIVES: Assess the sensitivity of PT with CTX in non-immediate cutaneous adverse drug reactions (CADR).
PATIENTS/MATERIALS/METHODS: Retrospective analysis (2000-2022) of PT with an antibiotic series including CTX 10% pet (Chemotechnique Diagnostics©) performed according to ESCD guidelines in patients with suspected non-immediate CADR reactions to CTX. Some patients were additionally tested with in-house preparations of CTX from Bactrim DS® tablets at 10% in pet or water and trimethoprim 10% pet (Laboratórios Edol©).
RESULTS: Sixty-four patients (48F/16M; mean age 47 ± 18) were included, mostly with maculopapular exanthema (51, 80%). Notably, CTX was sole suspect in 24 patients. There was no positive reaction to CTX at 10% from Chemotechnique or Bactrim DS® tablets prepared at 10% pet for patch testing. One patient reacted exclusively to trimethoprim with 1+ reaction. Two patients had a faint reaction (1+) only with the powder of Bactrim DS® tablets in water at D2, but as the reactions faded completely in 24 or 48 h, they were interpreted as irritant non-specific reactions.
CONCLUSION: These findings suggest that patch testing may lack sufficient sensitivity to diagnose CTX-induced non-immediate CADR. Therefore, clinicians should be cautious interpreting CTX patch test results.
