Summary : In this issue, Remedios Alfonso and Belinchón Romero from Alicante describe an unusual drug eruption induced by ibuprofen [1]. Initially the patient showed unilateral linear lesions and 5 days later she developed a bilateral disseminated rash. The disseminated form of this reaction is very common, and there are several reports on linear drug eruption [2, 3]. An important feature of this case, however, is the combined occurrence of the two types of adverse reaction. |
