Abstract
Benzyl alcohol produced an allergic contact dermatitis in a 46-year-old woman. The dermatitis was characterized by erythema, palpable edema, and raised borders. It had occurred after the use of sodium tetradecyl sulfate, a sclerosing agent used for the treatment of varicose veins. This article reviews the widespread use of this preservative in a variety of injectable agents.Entities:
