ABSTRACT
Acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis is a rare, drug-induced disease that is occasionally accompanied by acute renal failure. It is characterized by the abrupt onset of widespread pustules on an erythematous base and rapid spontaneous healing. We report a case involving a 47-year-old male who presented with exanthematous pustules after taking medication. Azotemia was found in the resulting blood test. We were able to achieve the final diagnosis by skin biopsy. After instructing the patient not to take the previous medication, oral steroids were prescribed. He recovered within 2 weeks with just desquamations remaining.
