Abstract

Chronic inducible urticarias are characterized by the risks of systemic reactions and a significant impairment of patient’s quality of life. The diagnosis of chronic inducible urticarias relies on the patient’s history and the challenge tests. A treatment algorithm for the management of chronic inducible urticarias includes nonsedating antihistamines as a first-line treatment. The international guidelines for the management of chronic inducible urticarias recommend updosing of nonsedating antihistamines up to four fold if standard doses are not effective. The meta-analysis suggests the efficacy of omalizumab in chronic inducible urticarias. In the prospect, the novel options of biological therapy for chronic inducible urticarias are expected.
