Abstract

Objective: Hypersensitivity to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is among the most common drug hypersensitivities. NSAID hypersensitivity (NH) may affect 1-2% of the general population and it is an important public health problem that affects medical prescriptions, practices, and interventions. It also has an influence on the quality of the patients' daily lives.
