AB  - We experienced a case of immunoglobulin E (IgE) mediated anaphylaxis to 
      levodropropizine. The patient was an 18-year old Korean woman. After taking the 
      common cold medication including acetaminophen, domperidone, and 
      levodropropizine, skin rash, angioedema and anaphylaxis were developed 
      immediately. As she was tolerable to acetaminophen alone, we thought the culprit 
      agent was maybe a levodropropizine tablet. To confirm the culprit, she underwent 
      skin prick test and oral drug provocation test with the suspected one. Finally we 
      detected levodropropizine specific IgE and confirmed the specificity by 
      inhibition enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).
