Biochemical changes were detected by collection of blood sample and sending it for biochemical studies. The male and female ratio was 3.17:1. The study showed that 24% patients were anaemic, 44% had raised ESR, 28% had lower serum total protein, 40% had decreased serum albumin, 10% had an altered A:G ratio, 8% had raised serum creatinine, 12% had raised blood urea, 12% had raised SGPT, 10% had raised RBS, 16% had showed decreased serum calcium, 18% had hyponatraemia, 12% had hypokalaemia and 6% had hypochloraemia. Key words: Exfoliative dermatitis; biochemical change. DOI: 10.3329/jdmc.v18i2.6272 J Dhaka Med Coll. 2009; 18(2) : 127-131
