<p class="abstract">Bleomycin is an antitumour antibiotic commonly used in the management of Hodgkin’s lymphoma and germ cell tumours. Flagellate pigmentation is a very specific and rare cutaneous adverse effect of bleomycin. It is characterised by linear, painless, pruritic, hyperpigmented lesions simulating marks of whiplashes over trunk and extremities. With the advent of targeted therapies resulting in the infrequent use of bleomycin, this unique side effect is also uncommonly encountered nowadays. Here, we report a case of bleomycin-induced flagellate pigmentation in a 35-year-old Indian female with ovarian teratoma. The characteristic patterned hyperpigmented patches developed following 2nd cycle of chemotherapy with bleomycin, etoposide and cisplatin.</p><p class="abstract"> </p>

The drug of choice for treatment of giardiasis in children has changed over the past several years. Metronidazole (Flagyl) has been found to be carcinogenic in mice and mutagenic in bacteria,1 and is, therefore, no longer approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of giardiasis. Thus, quinacrine hydrochloride (Atabrine) is the recommended alternative drug for the treatment of giardiasis in children. The purpose of this report is to remind physicians of a common side effect of quinacrine hydrochloride and to call attention to a simple clinical method for its confirmation. CASE REPORT S.W., a 3-year-old white boy, had a three-week history of three to six loose, watery bowel movements per day.
