    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Toxicology

    Background:

    • Understanding drug-induced acne is crucial for diagnosis.

    Observation:

    • A 55-year-old Caucasian female presented with acne localized to her legs.
    • The patient's medical history and environmental exposures were evaluated.

    Findings:

    • A comprehensive review of drugs and chemicals known to cause acneiform eruptions was conducted.
    • No specific causative agent or clue was identified to explain the leg localization of acne in this patient.

    Implications:

    • This case highlights the potential for unusual presentations of drug-induced acne.
    • Further investigation may be needed to understand localized acneiform eruptions.
    • Clinicians should consider a broad differential diagnosis for acne, even when localized atypically.
