Minocycline-induced lupus.
BMJ Case Rep

Division of Infectious Diseases, Department of Internal Medicine, University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa, USA.
Antibiotics are indicated for inappropriately prolonged durations not only for infectious diseases but also for non-infectious dermatologic conditions such as acne vulgaris, but inappropriate use is not uncommon. Inappropriate antibiotic prescription can contribute to the emergence of multidrug-resistant organisms, patient harm such as adverse drug events and increased healthcare costs. We experienced a case involving a late adolescent with acne vulgaris who had been treated with minocycline for more than 2 years, leading to the development of drug-induced lupus, attributed to minocycline.

Infectious and Tropical Diseases Department, Hôpitaux Universitaires Pitié Salpêtrière-Charles Foix, AP-HP, Paris, France; Sorbonne University, INSERM, Institut Pierre Louis d'Epidémiologie et de Santé Publique, Paris, France.
Objectives: Cutaneous tuberculosis (CTB) may be over-diagnosed due to imprecise diagnostic criteria or overlooked where mycobacterial investigations are negative. We evaluated the distinction between multibacillary and paucibacillary forms of CTB, as well as drug resistance and cure rates according to the results of mycobacterial investigations.
Methods: We included retrospectively all patients diagnosed with CTB from 1995 to 2018 in two hospitals in Paris.
Acneiform lesions in a 57-year-old woman.
Int J Dermatol
November 2024
Department of Dermatology, Rush University Medical Center, Chicago, Illinois, USA.
A 57-year-old woman on leflunomide with a history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and rheumatoid arthritis presented with multiple flesh-colored to hyperpigmented dome-shaped papules, scattered comedones, and underlying scarring on bilateral cheeks and chin. These dermatologic manifestations, laboratory evaluation, and punch biopsy led to a final diagnosis of acneiform or comedonal discoid lupus erythematosus (ACDLE). For patients with acneiform or comedonal lesions, ACDLE should be considered if the lesions do not improve with conventional treatment for acne vulgaris.
