Anaphylactic shock induced by HEC® ointment: A CARE case report.
Introduction: HEC® phenazone-tannin-witch hazel ointment is widely used in the treatment of epistaxis, with few adverse effects. Anaphylactic shock after packing with HEC® ointment has, to the authors' knowledge, never previously been reported.
Case report: A 53 year-old male presented with massive epistaxis requiring packing after cauterization. After packing with HEC® ointment, the patient experienced grade 5 anaphylactic shock, requiring admission to intensive care. The outcome was ultimately favorable.
Conclusion: Potential allergy to the ingredients of HEC® ointment should be ascertained before application, to avoid serious reactions.
