Minocycline-induced acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis in a patient with lepromatous leprosy

Abstract

Cutaneous manifestations of leprosy are variable. It is a known fact that, in addition to the skin lesions related to the disease, multidrug therapy can also have an impact on patient’s skin. In this report, we discuss a young girl with leprosy, who developed acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis to minocycline, which was given as an anti-leprosy drug.
