Abstract:
Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) has been reported to cause pustular drug eruptions such as acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) and putular psoriasis (PP). Clinical differentitation of these entities is often difficult. This case emphasizes characteritics of AGEP and PP as well as the need for clinicans to proactively follow-up these patients to monitor for the more aggressive outcome of PP.
