Abstract

Acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) is a self-limited drug reaction. Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) is an uncommon cause of AGEP with a prolonged recovery course; Thus, the physicians should take the possibility of this rare but severe event in their minds and try to diagnose correctly and better management. © 2018 The Authors.
