Özet

Fixed drug eruption is a common cutaneus reaction characterized by the formation of localized erytema, hyperpigmentation and blisters that recur at the same cutaneous site or sites each time when the drug is ingested. Rarely it can be disseminated. Fixed drug eruption has beer reported with many drugs. The most frequently causative agents are various antibiotics, analgesic/anti-inflammatory drugs, barbiturates, laxatives that contain phenolphthalein, metronidazole, oral contraceptives and quinine. Herein, we report a case of a generalized bullous fixed drug eruption developing in a 61-year-old female patient after using a suppository containing tenoxicam for the purpose of analgesia. We present the case because of its rarity to emphasize the clinical importance of the differential diagnosis.
