  1. Saline and histamine were used as negative and positive controls, respectively. Skin prick test (SPT) was started with a 100-fold dilution of stock solution, and a 10-fold dilution and stock solution were inspected. However, none of the drugs except histamine showed a positive result. Subsequently, intradermal tests (IDTs) were performed. After confirming a positive reaction for histamine and a negative reaction for saline, sugammadex showed a positive reaction at a 100-fold dilution of the stock solution, that is, 0.1 mg/ml. Other tested agents did not result in a positive reaction with a 100-fold dilution of the stock solution. ABPC/SBT ampicillin/sulbactam
