Linear IgA bullous dermatosis (LABD) is an acquired autoimmune subepidermal blistering disorder in which linear deposits of IgA are found along the basement membrane. Idiopathic, systemic disorder-related, and drug-induced forms of LABD have been described. Drug-induced LABD occurs in association with drug administration and resolves when the offending agent is discontinued. Other forms of LABD assume a more chronic course. The nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs piroxicam and diclofenac have been previously reported to induce LABD. To our knowledge, this article describes the first documented case of LABD associated with naproxen administration, which resolved after discontinuation of the drug.

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between demographic variables and recreational substance use within the college population. Eight hundred thirty-two college-aged students were given the Wellness Activity Profile, a questionnake that includes sections yielding demographic and recreational substance usage data. Discriminant analyses of the data indicated that persons using recreational substances differed significantly from non-users. Marijuana users differed from non-users on parental income, high school grade point average, gender, and political orientation, while no demographic differences were found between cocaine users and non-users. Composite substance users differed from non-users on political orientation, parental income, and gender.The widespread pattern of recreational substance use has recently gained national attention. No longer is drug use considered to be exclusively a problem of the "down and out," but is increasingly being associated with the educated and financially stable [ 1 ] . Usage among women has also increased, resulting in a converging of the drug use patterns for the sexes. Additionally, the concurrent use of two or more substances is increasing [ 2 ] .Clayton identified several factors that may influence recreational substance use [ 2 ] : 1) reduced parental supervision and influence, 2 ) willingness to experiment, 3) desire to be accepted by peers, and 4) access to more money and status. These factors are also aspects of college life, a period during which young 71 0 1988. Baywood Publishing Co., Inc.
