Allergic dermatitis

PIH can be observed after endogenous or exogenous inflammatory conditions. Essentially any disease with cutaneous inflammation can potentially result in PIH in individuals capable of producing melanin. Several skin disorders such as acne, atopic dermatitis, allergic contact dermatitis, incontinenti pigmenti, lichen planus, lupus erythematosus, and morphea have PIH as a predominant feature. Exogenous stimuli,both... 

Eye contact with liquid cyclohexanone may cause corneal injury. The liquid is a defatting agent, and prolonged or repeated skin contact may produce irritation or dermatitis. Allergic contact dermatitis has been reported in... 

Although the vapor is an irritant, the liquid has a relatively low volatility so that inhalation by workers of significant quantities is unlikely Exposure of workers to levels of 1.9-14ppm caused complaints of eye and throat irritation and headache. The liquid or vapor is irritating to the skin and may cause dermatitis, allergic sensitization, and photosensitization. Dermal absorption has been found to be significant in humans. A 15-minute whole-hand immersion in the liquid resulted in absorption of an amount equivalent to an 8-hour inhalation exposure of 10-20mg/m (3-5 ppm) vapor. ... 

Skullcap is known to have anticonvulsant and sedative properties. Traditionally, it has been used for epilepsy, chorea, hysteria, nervous tension states, and specifically for grand mal. In Chinese herbal medicine, the roots of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi have been used traditionally as a remedy for inflammation, suppurative dermatitis, allergic diseases, hyperlipidemia, and atherosclerosis.

All isocyanates are known to cause pulmonary toxicity. Isocyanates are the most common causes of occupational asthma and have led to the development of immediate or late asthma among workers. Isocyanates have caused bronchitis, rhinitis, conjunctivitis, chronic obstructive lung disease, contact sensitivity, dermatitis, allergic alveolitis, and immunologic hemorrhagic pneumonitis.29... 

Food diary is frequently used to evaluate harmful food influence in chronic allergic disease (atopic dermatitis, allergic eosinophilic gastroenteritis, or esophagitis) (Sampson, 1999a). 

Contamination of the facial skin can result in frank irritant contact dermatitis. Allergic contact dermatitis has been observed in some patients (7-10). 

Topical minoxidil stimulates new hair growth and arrests loss of hair in androgenic alopecia. Minoxidil is poorly absorbed through the skin (less than 4%) (1), and plasma concentrations of minoxidil are far less than 10% of the mean minoxidil concentration present 2 hours after oral ingestion of 5 mg, the lowest dose for the treatment of hypertension (2). Its adverse effects after topical apph-cation are therefore usually limited to the apphcation site on the scalp. They include irritant contact dermatitis, allergic contact dermatitis, and exacerbation of seborrheic dermatitis. These effects are seen in 5.7% of patients who use a 5% solution and in 1.9% of those who use a 2% formulation (3).

PUVA is used most commonly in the treatment of psoriasis, vitiligo, and cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. However, up to 30 other skin diseases have been reported to be responsive to PUVA therapy. The most common of these include palmarplantar pustulosis, polymorphous light eruption, dishydrotic eczema, atopic dermatitis, allergic contact dermatitis, actinic reticuloid, solar urticaria, pityriasis lichenoides, and graft versus host disease.

Acute oral exposure results in abdominal cramping, diarrhea, black stools, and a greenish-black coating on the tongue. Skin exposure may result in dermatitis, allergic skin lesions, and a green discoloration of the skin. A fatal dose may result in central nervous system depression with tremors, headache, and tinnitus. 

The frequent side effects of the drug are nausea and vomiting. However, the drug may also be responsible for occasional optic atrophy, blindness, loss of appetite, diarrhea, renal damage, exfoliative dermatitis, allergic reactions and even death [9,12]. 

The word dermatitis is a general term denoting an inflammatory erythematous rash. Many types of dermahhs have been described, with the most common being atopic dermatihs (see Chap. 97 for a complete discussion) and contact dermahhs. Although atopic dermatitis can occur at any age, it is most common in infants and children, and thus age can be a crihcal identifier in dishnguishing between atopic and contact dermahhs. Atopic dermatitis is also frequently associated with elevated IgE levels and family history of atopic disease, such as dermatitis, allergic rhinitis, and asthma. ...

Examples of allergic solvents are terpene products with high sensitivity potential, which can cause positive test reactions (patch-test) or even allergic diseases (contact sensitization and dermatitis). Allergic dermatitis can even be provoked by d-limonene in the air. Terpenes and terpenoid substances are found especially in natural products , e.g., cosmetic products, foods, and plants (oilseed rape). ...
