Baboon syndrome (SDRIFE) after valsartan/hydrochlorothiazide intake for several years.

Herein, we present a case of baboon syndrome/SDRIFE that occurred after intake of valsartan/hydrochlorothiazide for several years. The patient falls within the five diagnostic criteria and to the best of our knowledge, there have been no previous reports associating valsartan/hydrochlorothiazide with baboon syndrome/SDRIFE. Withdrawal of the anti-hypertensive drugs and initiation of topical and systemic steroids provided symptomatic relief and follow-up showed favourable results with complete remission of the cutaneous eruptions.
