Drug-induced linear IgA bullous dermatosis probably induced by furosemide.
Linear IgA bullous dermatosis (LABD) is an autoimmune disease, characterized by linear deposition of IgA along the basement membrane zone. Drug-induced LABD is rare but increasing in frequency. A new case of drug-induced LABD associated with the administration of furosemide is described.
