Abstract
A variety of drugs have been implicated to induce or trigger pemphigus. A c ase of pemphigus foliaceus that was probably caused by indapamide, in whom the diagnosis was based on clinical, histologic and direct immunofluorescen ce testing, is reported here. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this i s the first reported patient with indapamide-induced pemphigus.
