[…] diethylcarbamazine in onchocerciasis, most commonly an intensely pruritic rash, but sometimes also systemic manifestations such as fever, malaise, lymph node swelling, eosinophilia, arthralgias, tachycardia, and hypotension; if numerous microfilariae are present[medicine.academic.ru]
A generalized urticarial rash was present covering his arms, legs and trunk. He had bulbar and palpebral conjunctival injection and angioedema of his face, with mild swelling of his lower extremities and penis.[journals.lww.com]
This presents acutely with fluctuating focal neurological signs and meningitis, with eosinophils in peripheral blood and cerebrospinal fluid.[europeanmedical.info]
The patient was hospitalized with fever, urticaria, abdominal pain and angioedema. Twelve hours after treatment with intravenous methylprednisolone he had complete resolution of his symptoms.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Even so, nearly one-fourth of patients treated with ivermectin develop isolated fever or pruritis without the remaining constellation of symptoms.[journals.lww.com]
