SUMMARY

A 49‐year‐old man presented with a reproducible, localized amoxycillin–clavulanic acid‐induced eruption. The histopathology from lesional skin revealed a neutrophilic dermatosis. These histological findings have not been reported in previous fixed drug eruptions. A brief review is undertaken comparing fixed drug eruption and the group of neutrophilic dermatoses with our case presentation. We propose a new entity of neutrophilic fixed drug eruption.

Eighty years have elapsed since fixed drug eruption was described (Brocq, 1894) but the mechanism of production is still unknown. Both immunological and toxic mechanisms have been implicated to explain the abnormal response of the skin to the administered drug, but there is no supporting evidence in
