S C Bharija, and M S Belhaj

Drug eruptions are among the most common cutaneous disorders encountered by dermatologists. They occur in many forms and mimic many dermatoses. Fixed Drug Eruption (FDE) has its own characteristics and may be associated with ingestion of a number of agents. The incidence of FDE induced by a specific drug depends on the frequency with which the agent is used in a given part of the world. Recently we have encountered many cases of FDE due to Cotrimoxazole.
