Haptens are small molecules that start an immune response in the body. They are usually compounds of a molecular weight of 10,000 amu or less. There are many different types of haptens but they all have some effect on the immune system. Some examples are:UrushiolBiotinHydralazineFluoresceinDigoxigenin2,4-Dinitrophenol (DNP)
They are called "haptens" (incomplete anitgens)
A hapten is a small molecule that can elicit an immune response only when conjugated with a large carrier such as a protein. Typical haptens include drugs, urushiol, quinone, steroids, etc. This is what I read on Creative Biolabs.

The term "hapten" does not belong in the list because it is not a complete antigen. Haptens are small molecules that can bind to antibodies, but they are unable to induce an immune response on their own.
Small molecules that bind with self-proteins to produce antigenic substances are called happens. The unique area that a lymphocyte recognizes and binds to an antigenic determinant.
