A 55-year-old woman developed painful,
red facial and neck
lesions with fever two
days after starting inhaled indacaterol
/glycopyrronium for COPD.
Blood tests showed neutrophilia;
biopsy confirmed Sweet syndrome.
Lesions improved
with corticosteroids after stopping the drug.
This is the first reported
case linked to inhaled therapy,
highlighting the need for primary
care awareness of rare
drug reactions and
the importance of ruling out systemic disease.
