International audience. Purposes of review In order to introduce the advances and use of the new sub-section addressed to the drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHRs) in the World Health Organizations’ International Classification of Diseases (ICD)-11 revision, we here proposed a used case document and discuss the perspective of this new framework. Recent findings We expect that the construction of the new section addressed to DHRs in the ICD-11 will allow the collection of more accurate epidemiological data to support quality management of patients with drug allergies, and better facilitate health care planning to implement public health measures to prevent and reduce the morbidity and mortality attributable to DHRs. Summary Allergy and hypersensitivity reactions, including DHRs, have never been well classified in the World Health Organization’s (WHO) ICD. The ALLERGY in ICD-11 initiative was launched 6 years ago to have a better representation of these disorders in the ongoing 11th revision of the ICD. It has been supported by six major international allergy academies, and collaboration with the WHO has been established and is ongoing so far. This document intends to present advances and use of the new “Drug hypersensitivity” section of the ICD-11.
