Angioedema Related to Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitors
The number of cases of acquired angioedema related to angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors induced (ACEI-AAE) is on the increase, with a potential concomitant increase in life-threatening attacks of laryngeal edema. Our objective was to determine the main characteristics of ACEI-AAE attacks and, in doing so, the factors associated with likelihood of hospital admission from the emergency dep...

متن کاملAngiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor-induced angioedema.
Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors frequently are prescribed for the management of cardiovascular disorders. In addition to their therapeutic potential, ACE inhibitors are associated with numerous adverse effects, some of which may be lethal. Angioedema is an uncommon but serious acute event that may affect any individual taking an ACE inhibitor. This review outlines the advances in...
متن کاملAngioedema, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, and angiotensin receptor blocking drugs.
To the Editor: We read with interest the article on the effects of nabilone on postoperative pain by Pierre Beaulieu.1 While it is unfortunate that his results did not generate firm conclusions, we believe that descriptive subgroup analyses may have yielded some important information regarding the effects of nabilone on postoperative morphine consumption and side-effects. Nineteen of the 41 pat...
متن کاملIsolated Visceral Angioedema Induced by Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitor
Visceral angioedema is a rare complication of therapy with angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors. Clinical presentation includes nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain and diarrhea. Early detection of this entity can prevent recurrent episodes and unnecessary invasive procedures, including surgery. This article describes a 46-year-old-woman who presented to the emergency department with abdo...
