13 |
anaphylaxisA type of allergic reaction whereby the immune system responds to environmental substances aggressively. Within minutes of exposure to the allergen, there can be rapid airway constriction, a skin reaction and heart rhythms become altered. In very severe cases, it can lead to complete obstruction of the airways and death.

anaphylaxisAn immediate and severe allergic response; a shock reaction to a substance. This can result in sudden severe breathing difficulty, severe drop in blood pressure, and/or loss of consciousness. Anaphylactic shock can kill if not treated promptly.

anaphylaxisAnaphylaxis, or anaphylactic shock, is a severe, frightening and life-threatening allergic reaction. The reaction, although rare, can occur after an insect sting or as a reaction to an injected drug - for example, penicillin or antitetanus (horse) serum. Less commonly, the reaction occurs after a particular food or drug has been taken by mouth.

anaphylaxis<immunology> An inflammatory reactions produced by an antigen combining with IgE bound to a mast cell that produces degranulation of the mast cell and subsequent release of histamine and histamine like substances.

anaphylaxisAn unusually severe allergic reaction, usually to food, drug, or insect bite. It occurs between an allergic antigen, and IgE bound to mast cells, stimulating the sudden release of immunological mediators locally and throughout the body.
