- Abstract: Acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis is a skin reaction characterized by an acute onset, fever, and a cutaneous eruption with non-follicular sterile pustules on edematous erythema. It mimics many of the features of pustular psoriasis but is differentiated by its characteristic clinical course and history. The cause is usually ingested drugs. We report a case of acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis possibly induced by ritodrine
