Idiopathic
angioedema treatment is similar to that of normal angioedema
treatment. However, as the causes are unknown in cases of
idiopathic angioedema, treating it is more difficult.
If you think you
may have idiopathic
angioedema treatment, have an allergy test done by a professional.
Urine and blood tests are helpful in order to determine whether you
have angioedema. If the results are positive, certain therapies or
antihistamines can offer relief.
Hereditary Angioedema Treatment
Hereditary
Angioedema Treatment is more difficult as compared to acquired
Angioedema Treatment. In hereditary angioedema, triggers must be
avoided, as the condition usually does not respond to epinephrine,
antihistamines, or corticosteroids.
Finely tuned
treatment is based on C1-INH concentrate from donor blood, which must
be administered under medical supervision. In many European countries,
C1-INH concentrate is not commonly available; therefore, fresh frozen
blood plasma, which also contains C1-INH, can be used as an
alternative.
Histamine H1
antagonists counter the effect of histamine and its response in the
sensory nerve endings and the blood vessels. These histamines are more
effective in stopping histamine response than in reversing it, as they
are not very useful if histamine reaction has taken place. On the other
hand, histamine H2 antagonists are reversible competitive blockers of
histamine at the H2 receptors.
Treatment for Angioedema
You can get urine
and blood tested in order to determine whether you have angioedema. If
the results are positive, it can be cured with certain therapies or
antihistamines. If you experience difficulty in breathing, get some
fresh air and take long, slow breaths. If the problem persists or
worsens, consult a doctor. The most important thing is avoiding any
other drugs when you are suffering from angioedema.
Acquired Angioedema Treatment
Epinephrine has
been very successful in cases of acquired angioedema. Furthermore, in
acquired angioedema, antifibrinolytics, such as tranexamic acid,
hereditary angioedema types I and II, and non-histaminergic angioedema
may be of use. Cinnarizine has also been proven to be useful,
especially in patients with liver problems, as it blocks the formation
of C4.
