Abstract
Many different drugs and agents have been reported to induce pseudoporphyria. Nonsteroidal antiinflammatory agents have been implicated as some of the most common causes. The first case reports of nabumetone (Relafen) induced pseudoporphyria have recently been published. We report two more cases of pseudoporphyria induced by nabumetone and stress the importance of physician awareness with the use of this drug.
