title: Generalized eruptive pustular drug rash due to cephalexin.
abstract: A 38-year-old woman developed a generalized pustular eruption 18 h after taking an oral cephalosporin (cephalexin). After having excluded other possible pustular dermatoses, we concluded that our patient's eruption was drug-induced.
