Yash Mehta, Vipul Prajapati, Pooja Agrawal, Supriya Malhotra.




Abstract

Oxcarbazepine, an antiepileptic medication, can cause adverse drug reactions (ADRs). These rashes can range in severity and present as maculopapular, urticarial, or as a fixed drug eruption. The onset of the rash can occur within a few days to several weeks after starting the medication. We report three cases of ADRs in the form of series of skin reactions in patients who were prescribed Oxcarbazepine. In addition, the series also depicts the importance of stopping Oxcarbazepine use and seek medical attention if a rash is suspected to be drug-induced. Proper knowledge, recognition, and management of this adverse reaction can help minimize the risk of further harm.

Key words: Oxcarbazepine; Acute Urticaria; Maculopapular Rash; Erythematous Papules
