Drug eruptions.

Abstract

Although any drug may cause any dermatitis, it is possible to categorize a relatively few types of dermatitis and a relatively small number of drugs in such a way as to afford a practical approach to a sometimes confusing problem. These problems are generally clinical ones not requiring laboratory work and an experienced clinician will probably be able to manage most of these cases without extensive consultations.

[Drug allergy].

Drug hypersensitivity results from interactions between a pharmacologic agent and the human immune system. However, some reactions involve additional, poorly-understood, non-immunological mechanisms. The clinical picture is usually very similar to that of real allergic reactions and the therapeutic possibilities are also the same. The clinical symptoms (aspecific symptoms, special diseases, fixed drug eruption, and drug-induced internal symptoms), and the therapeutic and diagnostic possibilities are reported.
