10 Symptoms of Angioedema
Symptom #5: Nausea
Nausea is an unpleasant and uncomfortable sensation where there is an involuntary urge to vomit. It is a non-specific and common symptom that can be seen in pregnancy, food poisoning, gastroenteritis, motion sickness, dizziness, extreme pain, and more. In hereditary angioedema, nausea can occur as part of the recurrent episodes that lasts several days along with associated symptoms such as abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea, and weakness.
Nausea can be managed using antiemetics such as metoclopramide, promethazine, and ondansetron. Patients with nausea can find the symptom to be debilitating as it greatly affects the quality of life for them.
