Lecture Notes in Allergy

This book is a combined teaching assistant and revision aid for postgraduate medical students on the subject of allergy.

Accompanying the text, is complimentary access to 22 online audio podcasts which feature lectures by the authors.

The book is designed so that students listen to the lecture whilst simultaneously studying the corresponding chapter lecture notes.

Key points and tables in each chapter act as a revision aid for exam preparation.

Divided into eight sections, the text covers most aspects of allergy management. Beginning with an introduction to the topic, the next chapters cover respiratory allergies, skin and eye allergies, and systemic diseases such as food or drug allergy and anaphylaxis.

The final sections explore allergic mimics, investigations, and therapeutics, concluding with a selection of OSCE-style questions for self-assessment.
