Friend or foe: food-dependent exercise-induced anaphylaxis associated with acute coronary syndrome aggravated by adrenaline and aspirin: a case report

BACKGROUND: Although aspirin and adrenaline are the guideline-recommended treatments for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and anaphylaxis, both regimens can contribute to clinical worsening in the setting of concurrent ACS and anaphylaxis which is called allergic angina or Kounis syndrome. CASE SUMMARY...

description BACKGROUND: Although aspirin and adrenaline are the guideline-recommended treatments for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and anaphylaxis, both regimens can contribute to clinical worsening in the setting of concurrent ACS and anaphylaxis which is called allergic angina or Kounis syndrome. CASE SUMMARY: A 62-year-old woman with food-dependent exercise-induced anaphylaxis developed ACS after intramuscular injection of adrenaline for the treatment of anaphylaxis, whereas administered aspirin for the treatment of ACS exacerbated anaphylaxis. DISCUSSION: Our case underlines the importance of tailored treatment based on the underlying pathophysiology of individual patients. Clopidogrel and glucagon might be a better alternative for the treatment of Kounis syndrome.
