Clarify sulfa allergies

SULFA allergies... includes sulfonamides, sulfonylureas, or thiazide diuretics...

Does that also include NSAIDs, aspirin?

Re: Clarify sulfa allergies

No it does not! I have an allergy to sulfa and only medications with sulfa in the name causes allergic reactions. Though of course you could have patients who have allergies to things other than sulfa, always look for that.
