Because the diagnosis of fixed drug eruption is largely clinical, primary care clinicians should maintain a low threshold for referral to dermatology if there is diagnostic uncertainty or lack of supportive history. 2 Management includes discontinuation of the drug, and the prognosis is good, with the lesion (s) usually resolving without treatment. Oral fixed drug eruption caused by gabapentinJ Eur Acad Dermatol Venereol. 2009 Oct;23 (10):1207-8. doi: 10.1111/j.1468-3083.2009.03124.x. Epub 2009 Feb 19. The initial eruption is often solitary and frequently located on the lip or genitalia. [53] Rarely, the eruption may be intraoral. Other common locations of the initial lesion are the hip, lower back/sacrum, or proximal extremity. With the initial fixed drug eruption attack, a delay of up to 2 weeks may occur from the initial exposure to the drug to the development of the skin lesion. [54 A drug rash or eruption is a type of drug reaction involving your skin. We'll go over how to identify the different types and which ones require medical treatment. Sir, Fixed drug eruption (FDE) is a cutaneous adverse drug reaction characterized by recurrent well-demarcated lesions occurring in the same sites every time the culprit drug is taken. [1] These can be caused only by means of an exogenous substance (drug) and not spontaneously or after infection. Fixed drug eruption is a cutaneous drug reaction with unknown mechanism characterized by recurrent erythematous and bullous skin lesions. Sulfonamides, trimethoprim, tetracyclines, and anticonvulsants are well-known culprits. [1] Gabapentin- induced oral classical FDE has been previously reported. [2] However, to the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of neutrophilic FDE related A 65-year-old woman developed generalised neutrophilic fixed drug eruption during treatment with gabapentin for neuropathic pain in arm. The woman was referred to a clinic with multiple erythematous plaques on the arms and trunk. These eruption had occurred 3 days after the initiation of gabapentin 75 mg/day for neuropathic pain in her arm. Abstract Drug eruptions represent a wide spectrum of cutaneous reactions to various pharmaceutical agents. Given their complexity and varied patterns of presentation, these phenomena are the subject of study of many fields of medicine. Gabapentin is a widely prescribed medication, with numerous drug reactions previously reported. We present a unique case of a gabapentin-induced drug eruption Drug-induced cutaneous disorders frequently display a characteristic clinical morphology such as morbilliform exanthem, urticaria, hypersensitivity syndrome, pseudolymphoma, photosensitivity, pigmentary changes, acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis, lichenoid dermatitis, vasculitis, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, or fixed drug eruption. What are bullous drug eruptions? The term bullous drug eruptions refers to adverse drug reactions that result in fluid-filled blisters or bullae. Blistering can be due to various medications, prescribed or over-the-counter, natural or synthetic. Blistering may be localised and mild, or widespread and severe, even life-threatening. This study underscores the necessity of increased vigilance and reporting for fixed drug eruption and generalized bullous xed drug eruption, spotlighting common fi medications’ involvement and the signi cance of educating fi patients and health care professionals.

What is fixed drug eruption? Fixed drug eruption is a distinctive cutaneous allergic reaction that characteristically recurs at the same site (s) on re-exposure to the medication or other chemical agent. Gabapentin, being the most recently added drug in the treatment, was suspected to be the most likely cause of fixed drug eruption (FDE) and was withdrawn immediately. The authors put the patient on oral pregabalin for the neuralgia, which was tolerated well. Fixed drug eruption is a fairly common dermatological condition, presenting to us. It is a distinct cutaneous allergic reaction, presenting as single or multiple hyperpigmented patches with an erythematous border appearing after exposure to the culprit drug.
