Abstract

This article is a case report of a 53-year-old woman who developed acute generalised exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) after receiving betamethasone sodium phosphate treatment for COVID-19. The woman had a history of contact dermatitis and AGEP caused by other steroids in the past. Patch tests confirmed her allergy to certain groups of corticosteroids. Her skin rash improved with topical treatment. The article highlights the rare occurrence of AGEP induced by systemic steroids and emphasizes the importance of conducting various tests for accurate diagnosis. [Extracted from the article]
