REACTION




Milder reactions may be attributed to asthma attack or sudden episode of hives.

More serious, fetal it may cause heart attack.

Common Causes:
Two major group
  • lgE mediated
  • Non-lgE mediated
lgE mediated
  • True anaphylaxis
  • Requires initial sensitizing exposure, the coating of mast cells and basophils by lgE and the explosive release of chemical mediators upon re-exposure.
Non-lgE mediated
  • Similar to true anaphylaxis but do not require lgE immune reaction.
  • Usually caused by the direct stimulation of mast cells and basophils.
  • This reaction can happen, and often does, on initial as well as subsequent exposures since no sensitization required.
