fluoxetine and Urticaria

fluoxetine has been researched along with Urticaria in 4 studies

Fluoxetine: The first highly specific serotonin uptake inhibitor. It is used as an antidepressant and often has a more acceptable side-effects profile than traditional antidepressants.
fluoxetine : A racemate comprising equimolar amounts of (R)- and (S)-fluoxetine. A selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), it is used (generally as the hydrochloride salt) for the treatment of depression (and the depressive phase of bipolar disorder), bullimia nervosa, and obsessive-compulsive disorder.
N-methyl-3-phenyl-3-[4-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy]propan-1-amine : An aromatic ether consisting of 4-trifluoromethylphenol in which the hydrogen of the phenolic hydroxy group is replaced by a 3-(methylamino)-1-phenylpropyl group.

Urticaria: A vascular reaction of the skin characterized by erythema and wheal formation due to localized increase of vascular permeability. The causative mechanism may be allergy, infection, or stress.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"We present two patients with a history of chronic idiopathic urticaria occurring in conjunction with a panic disorder (DSM-IIIR), in whom both the urticaria and panic disorder responded favorably to a course of the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor antidepressants fluoxetine and sertraline, respectively."3.69Chronic idiopathic urticaria associated with panic disorder: a syndrome responsive to selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor antidepressants? ( Gupta, AK; Gupta, MA, 1995)
"Four patients treated with fluoxetine alone developed generalized urticaria."3.68Adverse cutaneous reactions associated with fluoxetine strategy for reintroduction of this drug in selected patients. ( Binkley, KE; Joffee, RT; Levitt, A; Leznoff, A; Richter, MA, 1992)
