Abstract
This article reports the cases of two patients in whom a widespread dermatophyte infection mimicked the cutaneous lesions of their underlying collagen vascular disease. Griseofulvin may be associated with an increased incidence of adverse cutaneous reactions in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. One patient with systemic lupus erythematosus developed erythema multiforme after taking griseofulvin.
