Enalapril‐induced angioedema: A forgotten adverse event

Abstract

Abstract Angioedema is an edema of skin, mucosa, respiratory, and gastrointestinal tract, due to vascular permeability increase, resulting in plasma extravasation, which has been associated with multiple causes. We describe a case of a patient who was prescribed with enalapril and presented with symptoms suggestive of angioedema.
