Abstract
Levetiracetam is a relatively new antiepileptic drug that has previously not been associated with severe dermatological side effects. We report the case of a 31-year-old male treated with levetiracetam for seizures who subsequently developed a mycosis fungoides-like drug reaction that resolved upon dosage reduction.
