ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) is a severe drug eruption. We report herein the first case of AGEP induced by phloroglucinol (Spasfon®). PATIENTS ANDMETHODS:
A 27-year-old pregnant woman developed a febrile exanthematous pustulosis eruption three days after treatment with intravenous phloroglucinol and paracetamol for nephritic colic. She had no previous history of psoriasis. The laboratory workup showed hyperleukocytosis with neutrophilia. A cytobacteriological sample of the pustules was negative. Skin biopsy revealed marked neutrophilic and leukocytoclastic vasculitis. Reintroduction of phloroglucinol after delivery resulted in the same clinical symptoms within a few hours of intake. A diagnosis of phloroglucinol-induced AGEP was made on the basis of intrinsic imputability of I4 (S3 C3) using the imputability criteria of Begaud et al. The outcome was favorable after withdrawal of the drug.DISCUSSION:
To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of phloroglucinol-induced AGEP confirmed by reintroduction of the drug.Palavras-chave
