Article Abstract
Purpose Of Review: The review critically assesses the different phenotypes of angioedemas associated with NSAIDs. Angioedemas exacerbated or induced by NSAIDs have high morbidity and, when they affect the larynx, can lead to death by asphyxiation.
Recent Findings: Angioedema can present as a manifestation of a syndrome such as anaphylaxis or it can be a separate entity, which comprises different forms that can be diagnosed based on specific criteria. NSAIDs are the drugs most used worldwide and they are also one of the leading causes of angioedema.
Summary: The manuscript addresses the pathophysiology and pharmacogenetics of angioedema, reviews its classification and assesses the diagnosis and management of angioedemas exacerbated and induced by NSAIDs.

The main possibility considered was uvular angioedema, other potential causes were not identified.
Beta-lactam antibiotics are the most common cause of hypersensitivity reactions to medications, followed by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID). The aim of this study was to classify children with hypersensitivity reactions to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID-H) according to the latest updates. ENDA recommendations were used to evaluate all patients with suspected NSAID-H.

Background: The 2022 AHA-ACC HFSA Guideline for Management of Heart Failure recommend initiating an angiotensin receptor/neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI) in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) who can tolerate an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEi). The manufacturer recommends initiating a 36-hour washout period when switching from ACEi to ARNI due to an increased risk of adverse effects, including angioedema. This study investigated the adherence to the washout period when transitioning from ACEi to ARNI at a community hospital.

Article Synopsis
- Bee stings can be dangerous and sometimes lead to serious reactions like angioedema, which is swelling caused by bee venom.
- Getting stung multiple times can cause conditions like toxic shock syndrome, while a single sting can lead to rashes or even anaphylaxis, which is a severe allergic reaction.
- The report also mentions a man who got stung by bees and developed a rare condition called Gaisböck's syndrome, but he got treated and felt better afterward.
