Abstract

It is hoped that this report will serve to stimulate further investigations to close the gaps which exist in the knowledge of allergy to insulin, and to emphasize that sensitivity to insulin during shock therapy in the treatment of schizophrenia is not limited to decrease in tolerance and to local reactions, but may suddenly become manifest as an anaphylactic reaction demanding prompt and pro-appropriate treatment.
