Abstract

A 67 years old woman with chronic hepatitis C was treated with pegylated-interferon plus ribavirin combination therapy. Three weeks after starting the therapy, severe cutaneous adverse reaction occurred on her. Specific treatment successfully suppressed the symptom and pegylated-interferon plus ribavirin combination therapy was completely done. Cutaneous reactions induced by pegylated-interferon plus ribavirin combination therapy was reviewed.
