  • Title: Allergic laryngospasm on initiating oral propranolol therapy.
    Author: Morris SJ, Rossner SD, Hall WD.
    Journal: Arch Intern Med; 1977 Sep; 137(9):1222-3. PubMed ID: 901092.
    Abstract:
    A 29-year-old woman suffered acute laryngospasm on taking the initial dose of propranolol hydrocholoride for the treatment of hypertension associated with a hyperdynamic circulatory state. Hypersensitivity to the tartrazine additive used as a stabilizing agent in oral propranolol appeared the likely cause of anaphylaxis, although a direct hypersensitivity to propranolol itself could not be excluded.
