AB  - Allergic  reactions  to  insect  stings  range  in  pattern  and  severity  from  relatively  harmless  to  fatal.  A  detailed  history  and  appropriate  diagnostic  tests  can  identify  those  who  need  the  protection  of  venom  immunotherapy  to  prevent  life-threatening  reactions  to  future  stings.  Providing  the  best  guidance  to  patients  requires  a  knowledge  of  the  patterns  of  reaction,  the  natural  history  of  the  disease,  and  the  utility  and  interpretation  of  diagnostic  tests.  Insect  bites  cause  toxic  rather  than  anaphylactic  reactions  and  are  discussed  further  in  Chapter  190.
