Abstract
A patient with urticaria caused specifically by alcohol is described. The reaction could be blocked by indomethacin and naloxone, indicating that the eruption was mediated by endogenous opiates and prostaglandins. Sodium cromoglycate blocked the reaction completely and consistently.Keywords
