Acquired Angioedema Treatment

Though acquired angioedema treatment is simpler than the hereditary angioedema treatment, it should be carried out with extra caution. As you know, angioedema can be deadly, so the first aim of therapeutic treatment should be to avoid the triggers. Recurring angioedema can result in certain disabilities; therefore, treatment must be taken seriously.

Whenever you seek acquired angioedema treatment, the doctor you consult with will perform certain necessary tests, such as a urine test or blood test, which will reveal the causes and triggers of the disease. The patient must avoid these factors as well as any other drug during treatment.

Epinephrine has proved to be a life-saving drug in the case of acquired angioedema. Cinnarizine is also useful in many cases, as it prevents the formation of C4 and it can be used by patients who are also suffering from liver disease and cannot ingest androgens. Laryngeal edema is considered the primary culprit when it comes to fatalities caused by angioedema. Therefore, plasma-derived C1-INH can be used to regress laryngeal edema in people suffering from acquired angioedema. This approach has also been successful in hereditary angioedema cases.

Acquired Angioedema

Acquired angioedema usually has some association with hives (urticaria), and both of them are similar in evaluation and management. Acquired angioedema usually occurs in people over 40 due to autoimmune reasons and certain allergies, which may cause C1 inhibitor's (C1-INH) deficiency.

Acquired angioedema may reappear at impulsive intervals. It normally lasts two to five days in the shape of swelling on the eyes, lips, hands, feet, and genitals, etc. Some patients may also suffer from severe abdominal pain due to swelling in the abdomen. If the swelling occurs on the upper reparatory tract, it is an alarming situation and can lead to death; therefore, patients should seek prompt medical attention.
