Sumario:Fixed drug eruption (FDE) is a common cutaneous drug eruption. We are the first to report a case of polysensitive FDE to both trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (TMP-SMX) and doxycycline. Diagnosis of FDE is largely clinical, and it is important to establish a good medication history to identify the causative agent. Treatment depends on avoidance of the implicated drug.
