Abstract
Background: Fixed drug eruption (FDE) is a special variant of drug reaction seen on skin or mucous membrane, and typically recurs at the same location. Ornidazole-induced FDE cases have been reported extremely rare.
Case: The 48-year-old female patient was diagnosed for ornidazole-induced fixed drug reaction on the sole. The patient’s history revealed that the lesion occurred for the third time in the last 6 months and she was administered ornidazole tablet 3 times by the gynecologist for genitourinary tract infection.
Conclusion: This report presents a case of fixed drug reaction located at the sole induced by ornidazole use and a literature review.
