Rabbit Skin Extract: Uses, Testing, Side Effects, and Precautions
Rabbit skin extract is a sterile preparation containing proteins from rabbit skin. Allergy specialists use it in skin testing to help determine whether a person is allergic to rabbit proteins. It is primarily a diagnostic product rather than a routine treatment for allergy symptoms.
Rabbit skin extract is usually administered by a healthcare professional to test for a possible rabbit allergy. The procedure can cause local skin irritation and, rarely, a serious allergic reaction.
