DefinitionThis section has been translated automatically.

Acronym for NSAID (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, also known as NSAIDs) exacerbated cutaneous ADRs (e.g. urticaria/angiooedema).

This includes all (non-immunologically triggered) hypersensitivity reactions in which the use of NSAIDs leads to an exacerbation of an underlying disease (urticaria/angiooedema).

If the ingestion of NSAIDs led to a de novo development of urticaria/angioedema, this form of (also non-immunologically triggered) NSAR hypersensitivity is called "NSAID-induced urticaria/angioedema" - NIUA.
