Injection site reactions are localized reactions at the site of injection of a drug. They may be mild, moderate, or severe and may or may not require medical intervention. Some reactions may appear immediately after injection, and some may be delayed.[1] Such reactions can occur with subcutaneous, intramuscular, or intravenous administration.
Serious reactions may result in cutaneous necrosis that at the injection site, typically presenting in one of two forms: (1) those associated with intravenous infusion or (2) those related to intramuscular injection.[2]: 123–4 Intramuscular injections may produce a syndrome called livedo dermatitis.[2]: 124
Less severe reactions may include (all reactions are localized):[3]
Factors affecting the likelihood of injection site reactions may include:[5]
- Needle features, such as gauge and length
- Location of injection
- Volume injected
- Rate of injection
- Osmolality, viscosity and pH of formulation
- Other ingredients in the formulation, including buffers and preservatives
