Abstract

Acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis is an infrequent but severe pattern of cutaneous adverse reaction. It is characterized by the sudden appearance of sterile pustules on edematous-erythematous skin, which is mostly caused by the consumption of medications. However, it may also be associated with viral infections, toxins, or food allergens, although this is rare. We reported a case of AGEP in a 33-year-old male shortly after a spider bite, a rare cause of AGEP. It was improved by oral corticosteroid treatment after seven days.
