Anaphylaxis is a cascade of severe allergic reactions that can involve the whole body and be life-threatening. It is a medical emergency that is relatively common and requires immediate attention. Anaphylaxis can be localized to one part of the body or can generalize to involve many parts of the body. During anaphylactic shock, the allergic reaction can cause a severe and dangerous drop in blood pressure.
