Abstract
To review the frequency, presentation, evolution, and management of adverse dermatologic effects caused by this drug. We performed a narrative review using Scielo, Web of Science (WoS), and Google Scholar search engines, using keywords in Spanish and English. The skin presentations that appear most frequently are the progression of previously existing or newly diagnosed psoriasis, alopecia, acne, follicular inflammation, and maculopapular eruptions. Lithium produces and/or exacerbates a series of dermatological conditions of different severity, even at therapeutic levels, which are not usually severe but, even so, should not be underestimated since it can affect adherence to the drug.
