Bullous hemorrhagic dermatosis induced by enoxaparin.
The bullous hemorrhagic dermatosis induced by enoxaparin is a rare adverse reaction, which may be under-reported given its favorable evolution. We report a 71-year-old man who developed hemorrhagic bullae at sites distant from subcutaneous enoxaparin injections. It is important that clinicians be aware of the different adverse reactions of these widely used drugs.
