摘要
Dapsone is an antibiotic used in the management of dermatologic infections and opportunistic infection prophylaxis in developed countries. Methemoglobinemia (MetHb) is a known complication of dapsone use that can result in cyanosis. MetHb is an aberrant form of hemoglobin produced physiologically by auto -oxidation. An impairment in the process of auto-oxidation due to genetic defects or the use of drugs/toxins causes its levels to rise. Management involves timely recognition and the use of methylene blue (MB) or ascorbic acid. We describe the diagnosis and management of a patient with acquired MetHb as a result of dapsone use.
