Author(s): Oualil H, Zemed N, Bricha M and Bourkadi JE

The antibacillary have an undeniable effect but their poor tolerance is often la ransom their therapeutic success. The knowledge of anti-tuberculosis side effects is important to identify the offending drug and to take a practical approach to such situation. Ethambutol may rarely be responsible for immunologic skin manifestations and unusually for generalized drug toxic dermatitis. We report an exceptional case of generalized drug toxic dermatitis to Ethambutol in a young 34 years old patient occurred on treatment of relapse for pulmonary positive TB smear.We discuss through this observation the medical behavior in front of generalized drug toxic dermatitis of immunologic origin.
