A rare hypersensitivity reaction with characteristics of the rapid development of numerous, nonfollicular, sterile, pinhead-sized pustules on an erythematous base, predominantly occurring on the trunk, intertriginous and flexural areas, with rare, mostly oral, mucosal involvement. Fever, peripheral blood leukocytosis, and mild eosinophilia are accompanying features. Systemic involvement, with hepatic, renal or pulmonary dysfunction, occasionally occurs. Onset usually occurs 1-12 days after administration of the causal medication and is most frequently associated with beta‐lactam antibiotics, macrolides (including pristinamycin and clindamycin), diltiazem, terbinafine, (hydroxy‐)chloroquine but many other medications have also been implicated. Histology reveals spongiform, subcorneal and/or intraepidermal, pustules but this pattern is not specific (same in pustular psoriasis).

Sterile multifocal osteomyelitis with periostitis and pustulosis is a rare, severe, genetic autoinflammatory syndrome characterized by usually neonatal onset of generalized neutrophilic cutaneous pustulosis and severe, recurrent, multifocal, aseptic osteomyelitis with marked periostitis, typically affecting distal ribs, long bones and vertebral bodies. High levels of acute-phase reactants (with no fever associated) and onychosis are frequently observed additional features.
