Erythema Nodosum Associated with Terbinafine Therapy- A Case Report

Journal Title: Journal of Dermatology Research - Year 2023, Vol 4, Issue 1

Abstract

Terbinafine is a commonly used anti-fungal agent in dermatological practice but not one clearly associated with erythema nodosum. There is only one published report in 2014 that described a delayed onset of erythema nodosum after cholestasis complicated terbinafine therapy. We report the case of a woman who developed erythema nodosum whilst on terbinafine therapy for onychomycosis to further consider this link and its potential implications.
