• TITLE: Bleomycin Induced Drug Allergy Mimicking Herpes Skin Infection: A Case Report

  AUTHORS: Zaw Thant Lwin, Zen Yong

  KEYWORDS: Bleomycin, Maculopapular Rashes, Anaphylactic Reaction

  JOURNAL NAME: Open Journal of Blood Diseases, Vol.10 No.2, June 16, 2020

  ABSTRACT: This is a case report of bleomycin induced drug allergy in a 34-year-old gentleman. He developed generalized maculopapular rashes with some vesicles over the shoulders, abdomen, both upper limbs and right thigh on the second day after administration of bleomycin and that can be mistaken for herpes skin infections if we do not perform clinical examination thoroughly. In this case report, the importance of distinguishing between herpes virus skin infection and drug induced reaction is emphasized and the differences in management strategies are highlighted.
