Journal Title: International Research Journal of Pharmacy (IRJP) - Year 2015, Vol 6, Issue 3
Abstract
Fixed drug eruption (FDE) is one of the common manifestations of cutaneous drug induced reactions. These are mainly caused by antibiotic and analgesic preparations. Many of the fixed dose combinations available in the market are mostly used as self medication and patients suffer from drug reactions. We present a rare case of recurrent FDE and lip swelling in a patient after taking fixed dose combination of Norfloxacin and Tinidazole.
