✦ Synopsis


SUMMARY

A 53‐year‐old woman with psoriasis vulgaris was treated with oral 5‐methoxypsoralen and UVA photochemotherapy. After 40 treatments over 3 months she became unwell with hepatitis attributable to the psoralen. Six years earlier she developed cholestatic hepatitis to flucloxacillin. A previous history of drug‐induced reactions should be sought before prescribing further drugs with similar adverse effects.
