    Author: Zillikens D, Zentner A, Burger M, Hartmann AA, Burg G.
    Journal: Hautarzt; 1993 Mar; 44(3):167-71. PubMed ID: 8463100.
    Abstract:
    We report the case of an 80-year-old woman who developed pemphigus foliaceus while taking penicillamine for rheumatoid arthritis. On the basis of this new case, we discuss fresh insights into the pathogenesis of drug-induced pemphigus. In addition, having reviewed the literature, we give a list of drugs that have been reported to induce this disease.
