Abstract:
Adverse reactions to medications are common and may have a variety of clinical presentations in the oral cavity. Targeted therapies and new biologic agents have revolutionized the treatment of cancers, autoimmune diseases, and inflammatory and rheumatologic diseases but have also been associated with adverse events in the oral cavity. This review describes the most common clinical presentations of oral mucosal reactions to medications, namely hyposalivation, lichenoid reactions, ulcers, bullous disorders, pigmentation, fibrovascular hyperplasia, reactive keratosis, dysesthesia, osteonecrosis, infection, angioedema, and malignancy.
