Abstract
A fixed drug eruption (FDE) is a recurring adverse drug reaction that manifests as lesions on the same cutaneous or mucosal sites after exposure to the causative drug. It is characterized by erythematous or violaceous, round-to-oval patches with a dusky center. With each recurrence, the number and size of lesions can increase, raising the risk for generalized bullous fixed drug eruption (GBFDE). GBFDE, a rare and severe variant, presents with widespread bullae accompanied by characteristic FDE lesions. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are among the primary causes of FDE. Although cross-reactivity between different groups of NSAIDs has been rarely reported in FDE cases, in this report we present a case of paracetamol-induced GBFDE followed by FDE triggered by cross-reactivity with dipyrone (metamizole).
期刊介绍:
Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology is an international, peer-reviewed, open access journal that focuses on the latest clinical and experimental research in all aspects of skin disease and cosmetic interventions. Normal and pathological processes in skin development and aging, their modification and treatment, as well as basic research into histology of dermal and dermal structures that provide clinical insights and potential treatment options are key topics for the journal.
Patient satisfaction, preference, quality of life, compliance, persistence and their role in developing new management options to optimize outcomes for target conditions constitute major areas of interest.
The journal is characterized by the rapid reporting of clinical studies, reviews and original research in skin research and skin care.
All areas of dermatology will be covered; contributions will be welcomed from all clinicians and basic science researchers globally.
