Abstract
- Hemo-Q (R) and Albumax (R) solution are widely used antianemics. Hemo-Q (R) contains cow's milk protein (casein) and Albumax (R) contains egg white protein (ovalbumin). Cow's milk protein and egg protein can cause common allergic diseases in infants and young children. We reported two cases of young children with milk and egg allergy who presented skin symptoms after ingestion or cutaneous contact with Hemo-Q (R) or Albumax (R) solution. When Hemo-Q (R) or Albumax (R) solution was taken or rubbed on, erythematous papules and wheals were developed in 10-20 minutes, but other antianemics which don't contain milk or egg protein contents didn't show skin manifestations.
