Background: Cold urticaria is a rare but severe and potentially lethal condition. It is primarily treated symptomatically with H1-antihistamines. However, patients have a variable response to these drugs and up-to-now it has not been possible to readily predict response to therapy of individual patients.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess the severity of the cold urticaria in naïve patients and the response to therapy of patients treated with increasing doses of an H1-antihistamine by measurement of critical temperature thresholds (CTT) for producing wheals on the forearm.
Methods: This two ...
