Exercise-induced anaphylaxis

From Free net encyclopedia

Exercise-induced anaphylaxis is a syndrome in which the symptoms of anaphylaxis occur related to exercise.

In some incidents, individuals experienced anaphylaxis only after combination exposure to a triggering agent and increased physical activity shortly after the ingestion of the triggering agent. In these individuals, either the exercise or ingestion of the triggering agent alone does not cause anaphylaxis. Triggers include foods (commonly celery, wheat, soy protein, cheese, and shellfish) and medication (aspirin and NSAIDs).

In other incidents, individuals experienced anaphylaxis with exercise and no triggering agent.
