...in some patients, the occurrence of AE attacks with a clinical onset after the third to fourth decade of life is not associated to C1 inh alteration and absence of other clinical accompanying conditions or drugs (idiopathic AE IAE). Edema persisted to minimal degree to the left cheek and disappeared completely 9 hours after the icatibant administration; at this time, pain and local discomfort had also completely resolved (Fig). ...compared with the usual spontaneous resolution of AE attacks in this patient that invariably required a mean time of 36 hours, treatment with 1 injection (30 mg) of icatibant was able to induce a relief of AE signs as early as 45 minutes and a complete resolution in 9 hours.
