Drug-induced urticaria – http://id.who.int/icd/entity/1491701156
Urticaria provoked by drug. This may be due to immunological or non-immunological mechanisms. Mild anaphylactic reactions may cause little more than urticaria but may serve as a warning of more severe reactions if the responsible agent is encountered again. Aspirin is a well-known cause of non-allergic urticaria.
