|
|

Abstract
|
|
|
We report a case of phototoxic reaction in a 48-year-old female induced by griseofulvin ingestion. The patient had erythematous papules, vesicles and patches on the sun-exposed aresas. Phototest revealed a decreased minimal erythemal dose to UVA
(10J/§²). Photopatch tests with 1%, 5%, 10% Griseofulvin ointment and vaseline as a control and photoingestion tests with Griseofulvin (50mg b. i. d.) were all negative. After the cessation of Griseofulvin(r), her skin lesions were markedly
improved
with complete loss of photosensitivity. (Kor J Dermatol 1992;30(4):524-528)
