Abstract
Idiosyncratic cutaneous adverse drug reactions are rarely reported in the horse. The most common offending drugs appear to be trimethoprim-p otentiated sulfonamides, penicillin, phenylbutazone and ivermectin. Du e to the ability of drug reactions to mimic so many other dermatoses, the diagnosis can be difficult. A detailed history, exclusion of other possible causes of dermatosis, and dechallenge are critical.
