A phototoxic drug reaction due to topical NSAIDs.

We present a case with a phototoxic reaction following topical use of NSAID. The phototoxic reaction was initially mistaken for cellulitis which led to treatment with dicloxacillin, which led to an exanthematous drug eruption. The patient was treated with topical clobetasol propionate and oral non-sedating antihistamines. Follow-up revealed post-inflammatory hypopigmentation.
