ABSTRACT
We report a case of a phototoxic reaction in a 48-year-old female induced by griseofulvin ingestion. The patient hac! erythematous papules, vesicles and patches on the sun-exposed areas. Phototest revealed a decreased minimal erythemal dose to UVA (10J/cm). Photopatch tests with 1%, 5%, 10% Griseofulvin ointment and vaseline as a control and photoingestion tests with Griseofulvin (50mg b.i.d.) were all negative. After the cessation of Griseofulvin, her skin lesions were markedly improved with complete loss of photosensitivity.
