Evaluation of Children with Cow's Milk Allergy Who Received Measles or Measles, Mumps, and Rubella Vaccines Containing Alpha-Lactalbumin.
Pediatric Allergy, Immunology, and Pulmonology 2023 September
Objective: Cases of cow's milk allergy (CMA) who reacted to measles or measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccines containing alpha-lactalbumin have been reported. The purpose of this study was to assess patients with CMA who received measles or MMR vaccines containing alpha-lactalbumin, as well as the characteristics of those who developed reactions to these vaccines. Study Design: Patients followed up in the allergy clinic for CMA and who received measles or MMR vaccines containing alpha-lactalbumin at 9 or 12 months of age were included in the study, and their characteristics were analyzed retrospectively from the hospital registry system. Results: Forty-nine patients were included in the study. Six patients received the measles vaccine, whereas 43 patients received the MMR vaccine containing alpha-lactalbumin. Vaccine skin tests were performed on these 6 patients. One patient had a positive intradermal test, so an alternative vaccine not containing alpha-lactalbumin was administered. The other 5 patients were vaccinated, and no reaction was observed. Anaphylaxis was observed in 3 of 43 patients who received the MMR vaccine containing alpha-lactalbumin. In all of these patients, the first reaction to dairy products was anaphylaxis. In 2 of those patients, cow's milk-specific IgE (spIgE) levels were >100 kU/L, and alpha-lactalbumin-spIgE levels were also high at 97 and 90 kU/L. The third patient's cow's milk-spIgE level was 15.9 kU/L, whereas the alpha-lactalbumin-spIgE level was 0.04 kU/L. Conclusion: Especially in patients with an initial reaction of anaphylaxis to dairy products and high cow's milk-spIgE levels, the risk of reaction is high with the MMR vaccine.
