Miroslav Fleischhacker ; Institut za higijenu rada Zagreb

Abstract

Dermatitises in four patients having worked on the tableting of phenothiazine are described. Acute dermatitises developed on the exposed parts of the body. Desquamation (exfoliation) developed in all cases. Two patients displayed a characteristic red colouring of nails and one patient ruddy hair colouring. A short review of the toxicology of phenothiazine is set forth, especially in connection with skin manifestation.
