Resumen
SCAGLIONE, A L et al. Acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis associated to Epstein Barr: A propose of a case. Rev. argent. dermatol. [online]. 2008, vol.89, n.4, pp.220-224. ISSN 1851-300X.
Acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) is a rare skin eruption most commonly caused by medications. It is characterized by an acute eruption of sterile pustules and it is accompanied by an episode of fever, which regresses a few days after discontinuation of the drug that caused the condition. We report a case 23 year-old woman without history of psoriasis, that consults for fever and an acute generalized pustular eruption after amoxicillin, with clavulanic acid administration in a mononucleosis infection context, which resolved spontaneously. The microbiologic culture was negative for pathogenic germens.
