Generalized bullous fixed drug eruption (GBFDE) is a specific variant of fixed drug eruption that belongs to severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs) and its diagnosis is based mainly on clinical course and especially on the reoccurrence of typical bullous lesions in previous and new sites after re-administration of the offending drug. We present a well-documented case of fluconazole-induced GBFDE, with a positive patch test to fluconazole (30% weight/volume preparation) and clinical tolerance to itraconazole proven by negative oral provocation. Even in SCARs, patch testing represents a useful diagnostic tool, while oral provocation remains the gold standard in cases that an alternative but the chemically relevant drug must be administered.

Adverse reactions to folic acid are an extremely uncommon condition; we present three cases of hypersensitivity to folic acid with different symptomatic manifestations. In the first and second cases, we made the diagnosis of IgE-mediate-type allergy to folic acid, while in the third one, we found a fixed drug eruption to folic acid.

Levetiracetam (LEV) is a second-generation antiepileptic drug (AED) that is well tolerated, has a broad spectrum of action, low protein binding, and minimal hepatic metabolism. The incidence of hypersensitivity to LEV in children and adults is 0.6%. This is the first reported fixed drug eruption (FDE) identified using a patch test in a pediatric case associated with LEV
