Abstract
Drug-induced acute anaphylactic reactions are rare in general. Antibiotics and anticholinergic agents are widely used for renal conditions such as hematuria and overactive bladder, respectively. However, anaphylactic reactions to this category of drugs are very rare, but many times fatal. These types of serious reactions are very important to watch for. Here, we are reporting levofloxacin and solifenacin-induced acute anaphylactic reaction in a 66-year-old male patient.
