Abstract
Background: Various provoking factors are effecting the clinical groups of pemphigus. Among these factors, drugs have an important role. Design: A list of drugs which had been indicated as inducing pemphigus was arranged. Then, drugs that had been used by 35 pemphigus patients who were hospitalized in our clinic were determined. Results and conclusion: Among those patients, 31.4% (11 patients) used drugs that have been indicated as inducing pemphigus, 37.2% (13 patients) used drugs that have not been indicated as inducing pemphigus and 31.4% (11 patients) did not use any drug. The stimulant effects of drugs were discussed and the importance of avoiding them in pemphigus patients was emphasized.
