Hyperpigmentation, a marker of rifampicin overuse in leprosy patient: An incidental finding

We report an unusual case of hyperpigmentation in a 40-year-old female who was on treatment for leprosy with rifampicin 450 mg daily for 2 months. After scrutinizing the treating physician's previous prescriptions and history, it was found that the patient has never taken clofazimine and minocycline, which were considered to cause hyperpigmentation in antileprosy regimen.
