Abstract
Acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) is a rare drug reaction characterized by acute, extensive formation of numerous nonfollicular sterile pustules on a background of edematous erythema.1 Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) is widely used to treat rheumatic and dermatologic diseases, and is well known to cause AGEP.1 At the end of 2019, a novel coronavirus was identified as the cause of a cluster of pneumonia cases in Wuhan, city of China. It rapidly spread in China and outside, and on March 12, 2020, the World Health Organization declared a pandemic.
