  • Title: Relapse of multiple sclerosis following acute allergic reactions to plasma during plasmapheresis.
    Author: Wirguin I, Shinar E, Abramsky O.
    Journal: J Neurol; 1989 Jan; 236(1):62-3. PubMed ID: 2915232.
    Abstract:
    In a small pilot study of plasmapheresis in chronic progressive multiple sclerosis, two patients suffered relapses following an acute allergic reaction to plasma. It is suggested that allergic reactions may have played a role in the exacerbation and recommended that fresh frozen plasma be avoided in therapeutic trials for multiple sclerosis.
