Dermatol Online J. 2019 Jun 15;25(6):13030/qt9q7937xb.

Abstract

Skin reactions related to secukinumab are uncommon. Although the initial phase 3 studies of this medication reported infection and urticaria as adverse cutaneous events, other cases of unique adverse events have since been reported. We are presenting a patient who developed an exuberant hand and foot reaction after starting secukinumab.
