Abstract

Drug eruptions are changes of the skin and mucous membranes which occur as undesirable side effects after the administration of the usual, normally nontoxic, dosage, i.e., after oral administration, after intracutaneous, subcutaneous, intramuscular, or intravenous injection, and also after inhalation or the absorption of drugs via the skin or mucous membranes (eye or nose drops, suppositories, vaginal suppositories, etc.).
