Systemic contact dermatitis from oral doxepin is rare, but this case shows a patient allergic to topical doxepin developed it after oral administration. This highlights a potential risk for patients with known topical allergies.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Allergology
  • Pharmacology

Background:

  • Allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) to topical doxepin is documented.
  • Systemic contact dermatitis (SCD) from oral doxepin is considered rare and theoretical.

Observation:

  • A patient presented with a known contact allergy to doxepin hydrochloride 5% cream.
  • This patient subsequently developed symptoms consistent with systemic contact dermatitis.

Findings:

  • The patient's systemic reaction was triggered by oral administration of doxepin.
  • This case provides evidence for the occurrence of systemic contact dermatitis from oral doxepin.

Implications:

  • Clinicians should consider the possibility of systemic contact dermatitis in patients with a history of topical doxepin allergy.

  • This finding may necessitate caution when prescribing oral doxepin to individuals with known hypersensitivity to topical formulations.
