title: [A cause of respiratory distress: eosinophilic pneumopathy due to minocycline].
abstract: We report a case of eosinophilic pneumonia secondary to taking Tetracycline whose severity required the use of mechanical ventilation and steroid therapy. On the basis of this case, we review the characteristics of drug-induced pneumonia as well as the differential diagnosis which are evoked.
