In this report, we present a 29-year-old man who experienced EM five days after using sildenafil and tramadol. Based on clinical examination and history, the diagnosis of EM was made confirmed via skin biopsy, which found intra-epidermal bulla filled by fibrinous exudate, some mononuclear cells, and a few eosinophils. The spongiotic epidermis showed lichenoid interface dermatitis, eosinophilic spongiosis, and necrolysis, consistent with EM diagnosis. Fluocinolone, 0.025% ointment, was prescribed for the patient, and the lesions healed after two weeks of treatment.
