The first case of tegoprazan-induced urticaria.

ABSTRACT

WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE: Tegoprazan induces adverse drug reactions during clinical trials; however, tegoprazan-induced urticaria has not been reported. Here, we describe the first case of this. CASE DESCRIPTION A 55-year-old woman presented with acute urticaria with pruritus after taking the gastro-oesophageal reflux disease medication, tegoprazan. Urticaria disappeared after tegoprazan discontinuation. In an oral provocation test, after taking 10% of tegoprazan, she developed pruritus, and after taking 30%, she developed urticaria on her back. WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSION: This is the first case of urticaria induced by tegoprazan. Physicians should understand the possibility of a tegoprazan-induced hypersensitivity reactions.
