Abstract:

Acute Generalized Exanthematous Pustulosis (AGEP) is a rare skin condition that is typically triggered by drug reactions, particularly antibiotics, but can also arise from infections or vaccinations. Its primary symptom is the sudden appearance of sterile pustules with erythematous, accompanied by systemic symptoms such as fever. Unless complicated by secondary infection, AGEP usually resolves spontaneously and has a favorable prognosis
