Abstract:In any case of acute bronchoconstriction the possibility of an adverse reaction to a drug should be considered. In many of such side reactions no allergic mechanism can be detected. Therefore, they are included into the category of pseudoallergic reactions (PAR). The clinically most important form of drug-induced bronchial asthma, analgesics asthma, belongs to this PAR group. A further risk for asthmatics are intravenous applications of contrast-media for roentgenography which in about 15% induce a severe, sometimes life-threatening pseudo-allergic adverse reaction. In asthmatics, the application of any beta-receptor blocking agents and also the use of parasympathicotonic eye drops for treatment of glaucoma are contraindicated. Paradoxical bronchial constriction following application of antiasthmatics are preponderantly caused by locally irritative actions, less frequently by genuine allergic phenomena or additive intolerance. The most reliable prophylaxis against drug-induced bronchial asthma consists in strong avoidance of all derivatives possibly capable to trigger any intolerance. A respective warning should entered into the emergency passport.
