Disseminated eruptive granuloma annulare induced by levetiracetam.

ABSTRACT

Granuloma annulare (GA) is a benign, granulomatous cutaneous disease without clear etiology. Disseminated and drug induced granuloma annulare is a rare presentation. We present a 47-year-old woman with diffuse circular erythematous eruptions following treatment with levetiracetam. Her clinical and histopathological findings were compatible with the diagnosis of granuloma annulare. To the best of our knowledge, there is no previous report of this skin disease as a result of levetiracetam use. We report this case to highlight this antiepileptic drug as a possible etiologic agent in disseminated granuloma annulare.
