The allergic reactions systemic - SERIOUS - have an influence of 0,4 % between the general population and almost they all appear in twenty-year-old minors of age (males / females = 2:1).
This epidemiologic status is related probably to the exhibition risk. These reactions comprise rapid development (in fifteen minutes) of widespread itching or hives, flush and angioedema and there can progress up to the edema of the top, included respiratory structures pharynx, epiglottis, larynx and trachea. Low blood pressure can take place without hives or edema angioneurótico. One believes that the reactions of immediate beginning are half-full for antibodies IgE against the poison in question.

Electrical Matainsectos. In this gadgetry an ink pad that contains insecticides (generally aletrina or bio-aletrina) is warmed electrically for vaporizarlos slowly. They are effective in closed ambiences.
Insecticide spirals. A spiral contains an insecticide that is spilled to the air after there is burned the spiral, which ignites for an end. His action radio is nearby with the disadvantage that can be burned very rapidly or go out.
Electrical buzzer that is supposed attracts especially mosquitoes females imitating the sound that the male mosquitoes do on having flown. Of doubtful utility in closed ambiences since the "enemy" introduces at home.
If the subject is not allergic.
Como los síntomas suelen ser el enrojecimiento, la hinchazón y el picor, para ellos utilizaremos una solución de calamina o un algodón empapado en agua y amoniaco o incluso un cubito de hielo. Pueden ser de utilidad las cremas antiiflamatorias con corticoides. No se aconsejan las cremas de antihistamínicos, ya que pueden producir erupciones en la piel tras la exposición directa a la luz solar. Las picaduras de abejas dejan el aguijón, que deberá ser extraído mediante unas pinzas o aguja estériles. La garrapata deberá ser extraída con suavidad para evitar que se rompa y poder sacarla entera, para ello aplicaremos tracción constante hacia fuera, lo más cerca posible de la piel sin aplastarla y sin maniobras bruscas; en el caso de que la cabeza quedara adherida, deberemos arrancarla también, si es necesario con la ayuda de una aguja estéril.
Sometimes the employment is necessary of anti-inflammatory also orally.

Subcutaneous Adrenaline is usually administered with obligatory character, and antihistamines and corticoids with optional character. Many beekeepers and allergic workpeople of the field to himenópteros have adrenaline in his house if this contingency arises.
In the allergic subjects with risk factors a desensibilización is indicated with the employment of a vaccine that offers one of the highest indexes of success of treatment.
