Nonpigmenting Fixed Drug Eruption to Etodolac

Abstract

Nonpigmenting fixed drug eruption is a form of fixed drug eruption which heals without pigmentation. To leave no traces makes the diagnosis difficult. A 37-year-old man pressented the erythematous patches on both wrists and the left thigh. Several hours before the eruption, he had taken oral drugs for the treatment of osteomyelitis. He had had the same eruptions which were diagnosed as an allergic contact dermatitis, 8 months ago. The patch tests with medicated drugs were negative, but oral provocation with etodolac brought the same eruptions.
