Angioneurotic edema Vascular reaction involving the deep dermis or subcutaneous or submucosal tissues, representing localized edema caused by dilatation and increased permeability of capillaries, and characterized by development of giant wheals. It usually disappear within 24 hours; seen mainly in young women, frequently as an allergic reaction to food or drug. Hereditary angioedema, a dominant trait, involve more visceral lesions than sporadic form and it is caused by deficiency or functional impairment of complement component C1 esterase inhibitor, resulting in increased level of several vasoactive mediators of anaphylaxis. Medications (drug generics) used in Angioneurotic edema Primary Drugs Diphenhydramine Methylprednisolone Tranexamic Acid Secondary Drugs Clemastine Contra Drugs Enalapril (Maleate) Lisinopril
