乳膠過敏者必須避開所有含有天然橡膠乳膠的產品。常見物品包括橡皮筋、乳膠氣球、乳膠製導尿管及某些手套。C（乙烯基/塑膠手套）與 E（硬塑膠水壺）通常不含乳膠，是安全的替代品。醫療環境應建立「Latex-free」車以備使用。
Clients with latex allergy must avoid all products containing natural rubber latex. Common items include rubber bands, latex balloons, latex urinary catheters, and certain gloves. C (vinyl/plastic gloves) and E (a hard plastic water bottle) generally do not contain latex and are safe alternatives. Healthcare environments should establish a latex-free cart for ready use.
✦ 台美臨床差異
美國醫院對 Latex-free 標示與執行非常嚴謹，常見於手環標記；台灣多以病歷註記為主，臨床物品篩選需護理人員手工確認。
