Acute localised exanthematous pustulosis (ALEP) induced by clindamycin in pregnancy.

Acute generalised exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) or toxic pustuloderma (TP) is an uncommon though well-recognised cutaneous hypersensitivity reaction that is usually drug-induced. It presents with a triad of scattered sterile pustules, fever and malaise. Acute localised exanthematous pustulosis (ALEP) is a rare and unusual variant of AGEP. We describe a case of ALEP triggered by oral clindamycin that occurred during pregnancy.
