We describe a patient with rheumatoid arthritis who developed psoriasis during treatment with etanercept; psoriatic lesions resolved completely after the drug was discontinued, but returned on rechallenge. No such adverse skin reaction occurred after switching therapy to infliximab. Through a Medline search we identified 11 reports involving 32 patients who developed psoriasis/psoriasiform eruptions during therapy with tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) inhibitors. All TNF-alpha blocking agents have been reported to lead to or exacerbate psoriasis. In some cases skin changes were severe enough to discontinue the medication.
