Allergic drug eruption is an allergic reaction that occur to skin or mucutaenous because of using the systemic drug. several type of clinical manifestation of drug eruption, as an example: morbiliformis,

erythema multiform,
exanthema fikstum, akneiformis eruption, Urtikaria,

Purpura,
dermatitis eksfoliativa, toxic epidermal necrosis, Steven-Johnson syndrome.

Drugs that commonly cause serious reactions

Allopurinol Anticonvulsants NSAIDs Sulfa drugs Bumetanide Captopril Furosemide Penicillamine Thiazide diuretics in this patient she was given Cefadroxil (antibiotic) and mefenamate acid (nsaid) for her Ca mammae, which can cause an allergic reaction

Trimethoprim sulfamethoxazole - 4.7%


Ampicillin - 4.2% Semisynthetic penicillin - 2.9% Blood (whole human) - 2.8% Penicillin G - 1.6% Cephalosporins - 1.3% Quinidine - 1.2% Gentamicin sulfate - 1%

Diagnosis
I. ANAMNESIS The drug that the patient consume 1st symptom appear : acute or after several days Itchy or not Have fever or not II. SKIN ABNORMALITIES Distribution Universal generalize Shape of the lesion

During history taking note and detail the following:

All prescription and over-the-counter drugs, including topical agents, vitamins, herbal, laxatives, oral contraceptives, vaccines, homeopathic medicines, etc. as these may not be volunteered as medications
The interval between the introduction of a drug and onset of eruption Route, dose, duration, and frequency of drug administration Any improvement after drug withdrawal and any reaction with readministration

Test or Examination :

Lab Examination

Eruption - Morbilliform (exanthematous(: It is the most common pattern Lesions are symmetric, with confluent erythematous macules and papules that spare the palms and soles It typically develops within 2 weeks after the onset of therapy

Common drugs Ampicillin,penicillin, phenylbutazone,sulphonamides, gold, genta-mycin, cephalosporins, barbiturates, thiazides

Eruption - Urticaria: It is the 2 nd most common eruption Occurs as small wheals that may coalesce or have cyclical or gyrate forms Lesions appear within 36h of intake and resolve rapidly when the drug is withdrawn

Common drugs ACEI ,aspirin/NSAIDs,blood products,cephalosporins, cetirizine, dextran, infliximab, inhaled steroids, opiates, penicillin, radiologic contrast material, ranitidine, tetra-cycline, vaccines, zidovudine

Eruption

Common drugs

- Acute generalized Beta-lactam antibiotics, exanthematous pustulosis : macrolides, and mercury Acute-onset fever and generalized scarlatiniform erythema occur with many small, sterile, nonfollicular pustules. The clinical presentation is similar to pustular psoriasis

Eruption
- Purpura: Can occur alone or as a component of vasculitis

Common drugs
Aspirin, cephalosporins, cytotoxics,heparin

Eruption
- Pityriasis rosea-like: Eruption is similar to PR Itching is severe not responding to antihist-amines There is no tendency of spontaneous remission

Common drugs
Gold,ACE inhibitors, thiazides, bismuth, barbiturates, griseofulvine, metronidazole

Eruption - Fixed drug eruptions: Lesions recur in the same area 8 h after the drug is reused Circular, violaceous, edematous plaques that resolve with macular hyperpigmentation Hands, feet&genitalia are the most common sites but perioral and periorbital lesions may occur

Common drugs Sulfonamides,penicillin, tetracyclines, aspirin/NSAID, barbiturates, cetirizine, ciprofloxacin, dapsone, fluconazole, hydroxyzine, loratadine, metronidazole, oral contraceptives, phenytoin, vancomycin

PATOGENESIS
Skin reaction to medications (drugs) : 1. Immunologic Mechanism 2. Non Immunologic Mechanism Allergic drug erruption : allergy to medications through immune process

There are 4 reaction types

1. Type I / Anafilactic Strong affinity of IgE to mast cells and basophils Others effect:

- Urtikaria
- Angineurotic edema - anafilactic shock

2. Type II (Cytotoxic) The combination between IgG & IgM with antigen attached to the cell Activation of complement system Lysis (tissue damage)

3. Type III (Immune Complex) Aq + Ab Aq Ab

Settles in the body tissues Complement activation Lisis Inflammation

Release of Anafilatoxin Release of Mediators (Enzymes that cause tissue

damage)

4. Reaksi Tipe IV (Slow cellular allergic type 12 48 hours)

Reaction of Limphocyte T + Ag There are two forms of reaction: : - Tuberkulin the dermis - Contact antigen located around the blood vessels in Ag + Limphocyte T

Lymphokine
