Abstract

Pityriasis rosea is a common, acute, self limiting inflammatory skin disease. Pityriasis rosea-like eruptions (PR-LE) have been reported after drugs. The clinical presentation of PR-LE can be distinguished from pityriasis rosea. We reporte a 41-year-old woman who developed PR-LE 5 days after administration domperidone.

Keywords: pityriasis rosea‐like domperidone drug eruption; pregnancy.
