Resumo
Reações de hipersensibilidade a medicamentos (RHM) podem induzir manifestações clínicas heterogêneas, desde leves até graves. São classificadas em imunológicas ou alérgicas quando mediadas por anticorpos ou linfócitos T, e não imunológicas quando decorrentes de efeitos farmacológicos da droga, incluindo inibição da enzima cicloxigenase (Cox). Os dois grupos mais frequentemente implicados nas RHM são os anti-inflamatórios não esteroidais (AINEs), e os antibióticos betalactâmicos. O manejo adequado das reações aos AINEs depende da identificação do mecanismo fisiopatológico envolvido, que permitirá classificar em reator seletivo (indivíduo que reage a um único fármaco e a outros com estrutura química similar), ou reator múltiplo ou intolerante cruzado (aquele que reage a múltiplos fármacos de estrutura química não relacionada). O cloridrato de benzidamina (CBZ) é um AINE de uso frequente e relativamente seguro, sem descrições de reações graves associadas ao seu uso. Atua inibindo as enzimas Prostaglandina Endoperoxidase H Sintase 1 e/ou 2, e a Fosfolipase A2. Em pacientes com história de reações aos AINEs, o teste de provocação é a ferramenta diagnóstica padrão ouro para confirmar ou excluir a reatividade cruzada a outros AINEs e definir um fármaco alternativo seguro. Descreveremos um caso raro de anafilaxia ao CBZ durante teste de provocação oral.

Abstract
Hypersensitivity drug reactions (HDRs) may induce mild to severe heterogeneous clinical manifestations. They are classified as immunological or allergic when mediated by antibodies or T lymphocytes, and non-immunological when resulting from pharmacological effects of the drug, including inhibition of the cyclooxygenase (Cox) enzyme. The two groups of drugs most frequently implicated in HDRs are non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and beta-lactam antibiotics. Appropriate management of NSAID reactions depends on identification of the pathophysiological mechanism involved, which will allow to classify the patient as selective reactor (patient reacting to a single drug and others with similar chemical structure) or multiple or cross-intolerant reactor (patient reacting to multiple drugs with unrelated chemical structure). Benzydamine hydrochloride (BZH) is a frequently used, relatively safe NSAID for which descriptions of severe reactions are not available. BZH acts inhibiting the enzymes prostaglandin endoperoxide H synthase (PGHS) 1 and/ or 2 and phospholipase A2. In patients with a history of NSAID reactions, the challenge test is the gold standard diagnostic tool to confirm or exclude cross-reactivity to other NSAIDs, and to define a safe alternative drug. In this paper, we describe a rare case of anaphylaxis to BZH during an oral drug provocation test.
