Popis: Antibiotic-induced skin eruption in the setting of infectious mononucleosis is a common and well-documented clinical scenario. The skin lesions are non-specific and the mechanisms causing them are unclear. Several reports have described this entity with different antibiotic classes, mainly penicillins. Only 1 case of azithromycin-induced skin eruption has previously been described in this setting. Herein, we report the second case.
