We have investigated the incidence of requests for allergy testing in 5005 patients attending an anaesthetic assessment clinic. Diagnosis of allergy to anaesthetic drugs was established using cutaneous tests. Allergy tests were requested in 151 (3.0%) patients, proving positive in 43 (0.86%). No allergic reactions were observed during subsequent anaesthesia.
