ABSTRACT
Aspirin intolerance is defined as acute urticaria-angioedema, bronchospasm, severe rhinitis, or shock occuring within three hours of aspirin ingestion. Aspirin intolerance occurs most frequently in individuals with chronic urticaria, asthma, chronic rhinitis, and normal individual in order of decreasing frequency. NSAIDs frequently cross-react with aspirin in intolerant individuals. We report a case of aspirin intolerance, which cross-reacts with naproxen, in a 42-year-old male with chronic urticaria. He experienced angioedema within 20 minutes after ingesting aspirin (700mg) and within 2 hours after ingesting naproxen (125mg). He has also experienced itching, wheal, chest tightness, and nausea during oral challenge test with aspirin.
