Tiaprofenic acid is a propionic acid derivative with analgesic, anti-inflammatory and antipyretic properties. Fixed drug eruption is a common cutaneous reaction by various drugs. Fixed drug eruption induced by tiaprofenic acid has not been reported previously. Described in this paper is a 57-year-old female patient with tiaprofenic acid-associated fixed drug eruption, which occurred shortly after starting tiaprofenic acid therapy for her osteoarthritis. Upon establishment of the diagnosis, tiaprofenic acid therapy was stopped and topical corticosteroids and systemic antihistamines were administered. The eruption resolved, leaving post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation within 5 days. The rash returned following tiaprofenic acid rechallenge. It is proposed that fixed drug eruption is a new side effect of tiaprofenic acid.
