Sulfa-induced acute eosinophilic pneumonia.

Acute eosinophilic pneumonia (AEP) is an infrequently seen interstitial lung disease secondary to medications. We report a series of 3 case of severe AEP which developed as a result of sulfa medication. 2 patients had received treatment with sulfamethoxazole for acne and 1 was treated with sulfasalazine for colitis.
