Abstract:
:Cutaneous adverse drug reactions comprise a significant proportion of all adverse drug reactions. They may mimic other dermatologic or systemic illnesses and may cause significant morbidity or mortality. Seven morphologic groups encompass the most commonly encountered cutaneous drug reaction syndromes: exanthematous (maculopapular), dermatitic/eczematous, urticarial, pustular, blistering, purpuric, and erythrodermic. Drug reactions may have significant downstream consequences for the older individual.
