Abstract
|
|
|
|
Secukinumab is an anti-interleukin 17A monoclonal antibody used for treating chronic plaque psoriasis. Eczematous eruption is a relatively unknown adverse effect of secukinumab. A 32-year-old man developed eczematous eruptions on both lower extremities following secukinumab treatment for severe plaque psoriasis. The lesions were clinically diagnosed as a nummular eczema-like eruption and were treated with topical corticosteroids without switching or stopping secukinumab. Considering the increased use of secukinumab and other interleukin-17A inhibitors, dermatologists should be aware of the cutaneous side effects of the drug.
