Acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) is a self-limiting type of drug eruption that frequently occurs as a reaction to antibiotics, particularly penicillins or macrolides. Daptomycin (DAP) is a newly developed antibiotic that specifically targets methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus infection. We herein present the case of a 77-year-old severe burn victim who was diagnosed with DAP-induced AGEP while receiving treatment in an intensive care unit. Although rare, physicians should be aware that the administration of DAP can cause AGEP, which may complicate the clinical course of patients with a high fever and inflammation.
