Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Propyphenazone (1,2-dihydro-1,5-dimethyl-4-(1-methylethyl)-2-phenyl-3H-pyrazol-3-one; PP) is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug frequently used as mild analgesic medicament. It belongs to the chemical group of pyrazolones. Severe adverse reactions to PP are frequent and have generally been regarded as pseudoallergic or intolerance reactions. Presently, there are no useful in vitro test systems available for the detection of antibodies directed against analgesic drugs.
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to unequivocally demonstrate that IgE-mediated Type I allergy is the main mechanism leading to immediate-type adverse reactions to the analgesic drug PP.
METHODS: We investigated 53 young adult patients with adverse reactions to PP. All patients developed symptoms suggestive of IgE-mediated anaphylaxis within 30 minutes after intake of a painkiller containing PP. Patients were subjected to skin tests (prick test and intracutaneous test). In addition, a novel ELISA system was developed to prove the existence of specific IgE antibodies in patients' sera.
RESULTS: In 44 of 53 (83%) patients, skin tests showed typical wheal and flare reactions. Significant amounts of PP-specific serum IgE was detected in 31 of 53 (58%) of the serum samples. Moreover, in 7 of 9 patients with skin test negative results, PP-specific IgE could be detected. The assay was PP-specific because only PP, but no other pyrazolone derivative (antipyrine, aminophenazone, or metamizol), was able to inhibit IgE-binding in the system.
CONCLUSION: Propyphenazone is a sensitizing agent in susceptible individuals and can elicit IgE-mediated anaphylaxis. By using skin tests and our ELISA system we were able to confirm Type I allergy in 51 of 53 (96%) patients in this study.
