“…Our case most parallels that of the patient described by Palungwachira et al 17 and, to an extent, that of Rafiq, 16 both in the chronological sequence and the type of reaction that occurred. The reaction in these cases began unilaterally and eventually progressed bilaterally.…”

“…In this view, all etiological factors should be under account to solve this disturbing symptom by the physicians [7,8]. The some medications associated with periorbital edema such as aspirin, naproxen, ibuprofen, nifedipine, diltiazem, midazolam, topiramate, irbesartan, lamotrigine, niacin, omeprazole, pantoprazole, diltiazem, nifedipine, phenytoin, phenobarbital, hydrochlorothiazide, imanitib and risperidone previously had been reported [10][11][12][13]. In some previous case report, peripheral edema associated with mirtazapine was declared [14,15].…”

Objectives:The rare side effects as periorbital edema are worth to discuss most of the times. Periorbital edema is a rare and serious allergic condition. The etiology of this situation might be seen in different status that they are commonly independent of each other's as well as their various speculated formation mechanisms. The drug induced side effects might be seen in the etiologic factors basket of periorbital edema. Methods: Observational case report. Results: The authors describe a 30-year-old woman with generalized anxiety disorder who developed periorbital edema while undergoing of treatment with mianserin. Conclusions: Interestingly, we observed a relationship with periorbital edema and a safe, effective, well-tolerated atypical antidepressant-mianserin. This is the first-demonstrated case in literature periorbital edema due to mianserin. The case is enormous importance for contributing the side effect set of periorbital edema. Thus, it will be useful contribution for the daily practice of physicians and the other professions.ARTICLE HISTORY

“…Rafiq (2007) reports that intolerance to common drugs such as aspirin, although rare, is becoming more common and records of these allergies need to be readily available to dentists. (See also DeAngelis, Chambers & Hall 2010;Sambrook et al 2011).…”

Allergic responses to prescription drugs are largely preventable, and incur significant cost to the community both financially and in terms of healthcare outcomes. The capacity to minimise the effects of repeated events rests predominantly with the reliability of allergy documentation in medical records and computerised physician order entry systems (CPOES) with decision support such as allergy alerts. This paper presents an overview of the nature and extent of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) in Australia and other developed countries, a discussion and evaluation of strategies which have been devised to address this issue, and a commentary on the role of coded data in informing this patient safety issue. It is not concerned with pharmacovigilance systems that monitor ADRs on a global scale. There are conflicting reports regarding the efficacy of these strategies. Although in many cases allergy alerts are effective, lack of sensitivity and contextual relevance can often induce doctors to override alerts. Human factors such as user fatigue and inadequate adverse drug event reporting, including ADRs, are commonplace. The quality of and response to allergy documentation can be enhanced by the participation of nurses and pharmacists, particularly in medication reconciliation. The International Classification of Diseases (ICD) coding of drug allergies potentially yields valuable evidence, but the quality of local and national level coded data is hampered by under-documenting and under-coding.
