CIPROFLOXACIN INDUCED FIXED DRUG ERUPTION: A CASE STUDY
Journal Title: World Journal of Pharmaceutical and life sciences - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 8
Abstract
Fixed drug eruption (FDE) is a distinctive type of cutaneous drug reaction that characteristically recurs in the same locations upon reexposure to the offending drug. FDEs are less common than exanthematous (morbilliform) eruptions, which occur in both sexes and in all age groups. FDEs account for 14 to 22 percent of cutaneous drug reactions. Drugs most frequently associated with FDE are antimicrobials, anticonvulsants, and nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs. Here, an uncommon case of ciprofloxacin induced fixed drug eruption was reported.
