  • Title: Voriconazole-induced pseudoporphyria.
    Author: Tolland JP, McKeown PP, Corbett JR.
    Journal: Photodermatol Photoimmunol Photomed; 2007 Feb; 23(1):29-31. PubMed ID: 17254033.
    Abstract:
    Pseudoporphyria is a bullous photosensitivity, the commonest aetiology being secondary to various ingested medications. Voriconazole is a relatively new second-generation triazole antifungal agent. There have only been two reports of pseudoporphyria secondary to voriconazole. We report the third case of this phenomenon occurring in a lady being treated for disseminated candidal infection.
