Angiotensin-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 کاملDipeptidyl peptidase IV in angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor associated angioedema.
Angioedema is a potentially life-threatening adverse effect of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors. Bradykinin and substance P, substrates of angiotensin-converting enzyme, increase vascular permeability and cause tissue edema in animals. Studies indicate that amino-terminal degradation of these peptides, by aminopeptidase P and dipeptidyl peptidase IV, may be impaired in individuals with ...
متن کاملTreatment of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor related angioedema with icatibant
Background The absolute risk of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor angioedema is 0.3% [1]. The mechanism is felt to be accumulation of bradykinin. The current treatment is discontinuation of ACE-I inhibitor, and intubation if necessary. Icatibant is a bradykinin receptor antagonist, useful in treating hereditary angioedema [2]. We present a patient from a Canadian center who had ACE-...
متن کاملAngiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor-induced unilateral tongue angioedema.
Angioedema is a frequently reported side effect of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors. The literature suggests that immunosuppressed transplant patients are at an increased risk for this adverse condition. A 62-year-old African American man presented with acute unilateral angioedema attributed to angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor initiation. A PubMed literature search regarding unil...
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...
