Out of Sight, Out of Mind - Patient History in Disseminated Drug Exanthems from "Forgotten" over the Counter Medication, a Tough Nut to Crack
AKTUELLE DERMATOLOGIE(2023)
摘要
Two patients are presented who were referred for evaluation of unclear exanthema, in both of whom the diagnosis was not initially made. The first patient had a disseminated drug exanthema, the female patient a generalized fixed drug exanthema. The extensive allergological diagnostic work-up performed because of a suspected drug allergy was first negative. In both cases, the trigger was initially not obtained in the patient's history, because both patients had forgotten the self-therapy with over-the-counter medications or considered it irrelevant. Only after intensive questioning could the triggers pseudoephedrine and paracetamol, respectively, be identified and confirmed. The central role of a comprehensive history collection and documentation of all therapeutic agents taken is discussed.
