    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Pharmacology

    Background:

    • Spasticity is a common neurological symptom.
    • Dantrolene is a muscle relaxant used to treat spasticity.

    Observation:

    • Two middle-aged women developed an unusual acneiform eruption.
    • The eruption occurred during treatment with dantrolene for spasticity.

    Findings:

    • Dantrolene may induce an acneiform drug eruption.
    • This adverse reaction appears uncommon.

    Implications:

    • Clinicians should consider dantrolene as a potential cause of acneiform eruptions.
    • Monitoring for dermatological side effects is crucial in patients receiving dantrolene.
