Description
A common diabetes drug probably triggered one man's psoriasis, report Simal Qureshi, Sarah Finch, and Michelle Pratt in a 2024 case study. The patient, aged 76, developed the scaly skin disease after starting dapagliflozin, a drug with no classic link to the condition.
Three clues point at the drug: the sudden start, skin samples showing features that fit a drug reaction, and full clearing once the drug stopped. The authors note that drug driven psoriasis has no firm test and can mimic the ordinary kind, from small plaques to whole body redness. They urge doctors to ask about new medicines when skin erupts.
