A patient experienced extensive skin lesions due to captopril-induced lichenoid eruption. Delayed diagnosis prolonged the severity and duration of the patient's symptoms.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Pharmacology

Background:

  • Captopril, an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor, can rarely cause cutaneous adverse reactions.
  • Lichenoid eruptions are inflammatory skin conditions characterized by papules and plaques.

Observation:

  • A patient presented with extensive, cobblestone-patterned tumid nodules and plaques on the extensor limbs.
  • These lesions represented a late manifestation of captopril-induced lichenoid eruption.

Findings:

  • The patient's severe and chronic symptoms underscored a significant delay in diagnosis.
  • This case highlights the potential for delayed recognition of drug-induced dermatoses.

Implications:

  • Early recognition and diagnosis of captopril-induced lichenoid eruption are crucial for timely management.
