Abstract
The case of a widespread erythematous drug eruption brought on by favipiravir is described here. Patch tests and the drug lymphocyte transformation test (LTT) both indicated a positive reaction. Since COVID-19 patients take many medications, the potential for a drug eruption must be taken into account when diagnosing a rash.
