title: Fever caused by hydroxyurea.
abstract: Hydroxyurea has been rarely implicated as a cause of drug fever. In this report, we describe a patient who was highly febrile while receiving hydroxyurea for psoriasis. The fever disappeared after discontinuation of therapy with this drug; however, the fever recurred when the patient received hydroxyurea again.
