  • Title: [Toxic dermatitis caused by pseudoephedrine: apropos of a case].
    Author: Fontaine JF, Lavaud F, Deslée G, Caillet MJ, Lebargy F.
    Journal: Allerg Immunol (Paris); 2002 Sep; 34(7):230-2. PubMed ID: 12389444.
    Abstract:
    Allergy to pseusoephedrine seems to be rare and has been described as responsible of urticaria, contact dermatitis, fixed non-pigmenting erythema or pseudoscarlatina. We report the case of a male patient who presented a recurrent erythema after administration of different treatments including pseudoephedrine. A cutaneous biopsy was compatible with erythema multiform. Patch tests confirmed the diagnosis of allergy to pseudoephedrine but resulted in a reappearance of symptoms.
