Abstract

We describe a patient with eosinophilic pustular folliculitis who partially responded to oral indomethacin, but intermittently experienced new eosinophilic pustular folliculitis lesions. Treatment with tacrolimus ointment 0.1% resulted in the rapid improvement of each recurred lesion and allowed withdrawal of indomethacin. To our knowledge, this is the first report of the use of topical tacrolimus in the treatment of eosinophilic pustular folliculitis.
