Abstract
We describe seven patients with fixed drug eruption (FDE) due to ciprofloxacin, five confirmed by rechallenge. These cases make up 8.75% of all cases of FDE seen by us during 1992-93. Isolated, and striking involvement of the lips was seen in two patients. To our knowledge, only a single case of FDE to ciprofloxacin previously has been reported. Our experience suggests that, with widespread use, ciprofloxacin could become one of the common drugs causing FDE.Entities:
