A woman with hypertension had been treated with hydralazine and propranolol for the past 6 years. Leg ulcers and mild joint involvement had been observed for 3 years. When oral zinc therapy was started, multisystemic manifestations of a lupus erythematosus-like syndrome developed within one week. The possible implication of zinc in drug-induced lupus is discussed.Downloads
