Abstract
In the last few years, several cases of principally psoriasiform and eczematous skin eruptions caused by β-adrenoreceptor blocking agents, including propranolol hydrochloride, have been reported.1-3 Reports of positive epicutaneous test results to β-adrenoreceptor blocking agents in patients with cutaneous side effects from β-adrenoreceptor blocking agents are few.1-4 Cross sensitivity between β-adrenoreceptor blocking agents has rarely been reported.2-4 In our case, there were cutaneous side effects to a β-adrenoreceptor blocking agent. We give herein the results of the sensitivity and cross-sensitivity studies.
