Abstract
This is a case report, new treatment option, and review of the literature of multiple eruptive milia in patients with no genetic predisposition for forming milia. We report a case of a 71 year-old female with multiple eruptive milia in bilateral axillae which greatly improved after three months of azithromycin therapy. Multiple eruptive milia are a rare phenomenon of unknown etiology with only nine reported cases in the literature.
