Abstract
Fixed drug eruption from paracetamol is not rare but no cases of nonpigment ed fixed drug eruption caused by paracetamol have been previously described . We present the case of a woman who developed a nonpigmented fixed drug er uption following administration of paracetamol. Patch tests performed on af fected and unaffected skin with paracetamol were negative. The diagnosis wa s made by a double-blind oral challenge with paracetamol. The patient toler ated aspirin.
