    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Pharmacology

    Background:

    • Fixed drug eruptions (FDE) are a type of adverse drug reaction.
    • Identifying causative agents is crucial for patient management.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate and identify the drugs most commonly responsible for fixed drug eruptions.
    • To confirm the clinical diagnosis with provocation tests.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 30 cases diagnosed with fixed drug eruptions.
    • Clinical presentation evaluation.
    • Provocation testing to confirm causative agents.

    Main Results:

    • Analgesics were identified as the most frequent cause of FDE.
    • Tetracyclines were also a common cause of FDE.
  • Oxyphenbutazone was noted as a significant offender.

    • Conclusions:

    • Analgesics and tetracyclines are leading causes of fixed drug eruptions.
    • Provocation testing is a reliable method for confirming drug-induced FDE.
    • Awareness of common offending drugs aids in diagnosis and prevention.
