A 41-year-old woman with Major Depressive Disorder-Recurrent was treated with topiramate at 150 mg/day. After this administration, she developed intense pruritus and skin lesions due to scratching. Consequently, she was weaned off topiramate and the lesions regressed. Pruritus and cutaneous lesions are extremely rare side effects of topiramate, so we report an interesting case of skin reaction to this drug. OI aguglia, eugenio/0000-0003-2146-7737

Abstract
A 41-year-old woman with Major Depressive Disorder-Recurrent was treated with topiramate at 150 mg/day. After this administration, she developed intense pruritus and skin lesions due to scratching. Consequently, she was weaned off topiramate and the lesions regressed. Pruritus and cutaneous lesions are extremely rare side effects of topiramate, so we report an interesting case of skin reaction to this drug.
