Inpatient direct oral challenge programs are increasingly deployed as part of antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) initiatives to reduce the burden and impacts of penicillin allergy labels on antibiotic prescribing. Using data from a prospective multicentre cohort inpatient penicillin allergy program, we identify the key targets for delabeling to aid health service implementation.

ABSTRACT
Inpatient direct oral challenge programs are increasingly deployed as part of antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) initiatives to reduce the burden and impacts of penicillin allergy labels on antibiotic prescribing. Using data from a prospective multicentre cohort inpatient penicillin allergy program, we identify the key targets for delabeling to aid health service implementation.
