Farmacodermia em cão: relato de caso

Abstract

Pharmacodermia, although considered a lower incidence dermatopathy, presents notoriety in the veterinarian's routine of small animals given its severity and difficulty of the clinician in establishing the diagnosis. In the present report, a canine was attended with ulcerative lesions on the oral mucosa and tongue and crusted lesion in the nasal plane, and fragments were collected for histopathological examination. In the microscopic description, the findings were compatible with stomatitis with a drug or chemical reaction erythema multiforme pattern. After treatment there was remission of the lesions. The importance of the veterinarian in quickly investigating toxidermia due to the serious clinical signs and risk of death is emphasized.
