A young woman had recidivating herpes with erythema multiforme for several years. When conventional therapy failed to correct this condition she was treated with Transfer Factor (TF). Immunologic anomalies which had been registered previously became normal after the first application of TF. The skin lesions disappeared after the fourth dose. Six months later a new skin manifestation with immunologic alterations became apparent. They disappeared after two doses of TF. A year and a half later the patient has no lesions and the immunologic parameters, which were monitored throughout this period, are normal.

Skin tests (SKT) and Lymphocyte Transformation Test (LTT) utilizing sodium penicillin G (PNG) and penicilloyl polylysine (PPL) and Rast to penicilloyl G were carried out on forty patients with a history of allergic reactions to penicillin, the results obtained indicated no statistically significant difference between the use of SKT or LTT in the diagnosis of allergy to penicillin (X2, p > 0,05), while the use of Rast showed a statistically significant difference (X2, p < 0,001) in favour of LTT and SKT. The use of either type of allergen (PNG or PPL) in LTT or SKT showed a significant difference in favour of the former (X2, p < 0,01).
