Abstract Over 1000 medications are in common usage today. Approximately 700 of these are associated with a variety of cutaneous eruptions. The vast majority of cutaneous drug reactions in children are of 5 types: exanthems, fixed drug reactions, urticarial eruptions, serum sickness-like reactions, and photosensitive eruptions. Among healthy children, adverse drug reactions are generally uncommon and usually minor. Common, serious, and interesting cutaneous drug eruption patterns are discussed in this monograph, with an emphasis on practical information for dermatologists who care for pediatric patients.
