  • Title: Dapsone-induced peripheral neuropathy.
    Author: Epstein FW, Bohm M.
    Journal: Arch Dermatol; 1976 Dec; 112(12):1761-2. PubMed ID: 188385.
    Abstract:
    Peripheral neuropathy occurred in a 32-year-old man who was receiving dapsone (Aviosulfon) for dermatitis herpetiformis. Neurological examination showed polyneuropathy that involved the median and ulnar nerves, with a lesser involvement of other peripheral nerves. After treatment with dapsone was discontinued, the neuropathy reversed itself, with practically complete return of function of all nerves involved.
