Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is a rare, autosomal dominant disease due to functional deficiency of C1-esterase inhibitor (C1-INH). In this observational study anamnestic, clinical and treatment data from forty patients were retrospectively analysed. Thirty nine of the patients suffered from type I of
Two children had recurrent neurological symptoms associated with angioedema. Extensive clinical and laboratory investigations failed to reveal a separate cause for the neurological changes. Only 19 prior cases of this association have been reported. Seizures and headaches are the most common
Reports of urticaria and rash with bupropion are common, with an estimated incidence of 1-4%. Serious adverse reactions, including seizures and angioedema occur less commonly, but may be dose related. Rarely patients present with fever, arthralgia and myalgia resembling a serumsickness reaction. A
A 27 year old woman suffered from recurrent attacks of laryngeal oedema due to C1-inhibitor deficiency, and was treated with danazol and tranexamic acid. The trachea was intubated with great difficulty, twice on one occasion. Two and a half years later she was admitted to the Intensive Care Unit
Sulfites are widely used as preservatives in the food and pharmaceutical industries. In the United States more than 250 cases of sulfite-related adverse reactions, including anaphylactic shock, asthmatic attacks, urticaria and angioedema, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea, seizures and death, have
Nefopam is widely used for the relief of moderate acute pain. Its safety profile remains to be specified. The objective of the study was to review adverse reactions to nefopam spontaneously reported to the French Pharmacovigilance system. All cases of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) associated with
Intravenous recombinant human tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA, formulated as alteplase) is the primary therapy for acute ischaemic stroke by breaking down a clot of an occluded vessel. There are several randomised controlled trials and observational studies that support the use of rtPA to improve

Acid suppression with histamine-2 receptor antagonists (H2RAs) or proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) is recommended for children with persistent gastroesophageal reflux disease symptoms. In this retrospective, observational postauthorization study, we aimed to assess and compare safety outcomes
Oral poliovirus vaccine (OPV) and diphtheria-tetanus-acellular pertussis vaccine (DTaP) are widely used in China while Haemophilus influenzae type b vaccines (Hib) and a DTaP, inactivated poliovirus (IPV) andHib polysaccharide conjugated to tetanus protein (PRP ~ T) combined vaccine Sulfiting agents have been reported to cause anaphylaxis, asthma, urticaria/angioedema, seizure, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea, and death. There is no consensus regarding the pathogenesis of these reactions. The possible role of IgE-mediated mechanism has been debated. To clarify the
