title: Lichenoid drug reaction due to sildenafil.
abstract: Lichenoid drug eruptions are difficult to distinguish from lichen planus. Determining the offending agent is complicated by the proliferation of lifestyle medications that the patient may not consider a medication. A case of lichenoid drug eruption due to sildenafil, which was taken for sexual enhancement, is presented.
