Abstract
The multiple drug hypersensitivity is an rare syndrome, severe as presentation, evolution and therapeutic approach as well as for the patient, as for the allergist. It includes a panoramic approach of the clinical already assessed reactions (severe general urticaria, laryngeal edema, Quincke edema, anaphylaxis).
Highlights
A case report of an 50 years old patient which started 14 years ago, with an severe onset – glotic edema with anaphylaxis, after a second intake of Rocephin (Sodium Ceftriaxone) and due to an emotional distress and associated with a malfunction of the thyroid status. He develops within a 3 year period of time a multiple drug hypersensitivity syndrome to beta lactam and non beta lactam antibiotics, inhibitors of converting enzyme, thiopental and COX2 inhibitors
The thyroid status and pshycological type of reaction- as strong choleric, large catecholamines amount releaser recommends him for a detailed test for Ig E, non Ig E, mast cell degranulation test or lymphoblastic transformation test
It is quite improbable that an overview for all drugs for specific Ig E could be performed in terms of financial expenditure
