Abstract
We aimed to present a case which was admitted to emergency department with pomegranate intake. Case report: A 61-year-old man was admitted to emergency department with swollen lips and difficulty breathing. He disclosed that he had drunk half glass of pomegranate juice half an hour before his emergency department admission. He was administered an antihistaminic and methyl prednisolone 2mg/kg. He was discharged after treatment. A detailed history should be obtained to elcudiate the etiology of angioneurotic edema. Possible offending medications, foods, food additives, physical triggers, and insect venoms should be questioned.
