Dipeptidyl peptidase-IV inhibitors induced bullous pemphigoid: a case report and analysis of cases reported in the European pharmacovigilance database.
WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE: Bullous pemphigoid has been reported in association with gliptins. We describe a case, review the literature and analyse all cases of bullous pemphigoid recorded in the European pharmacovigilance database, EudraVigilance.
CASE SUMMARY: A 74-year-old woman, treated with vildagliptin/metformin for 12 months, developed bullous pemphigoid, confirmed by skin biopsy. The symptoms resolved within 7 months after vildagliptin/metformin withdrawal.
WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSION: A search in EudraVigilance showed a disproportionality for bullous pemphigoid and gliptins, except alogliptin. These findings extend the evidence associating gliptins with this potentially serious disease.
