Drugs that induce pemphigus may be categorized into 2 groups: thiol drugs and nonthiol drugs. Thiol drugs are reported most frequently as the culprits of drug-induced pemphigus. They contain a thiol group (-SH) in their chemical structure. Penicillamine, captopril, and enalapril are the thiol drugs most often associated with drug-induced pemphigus.
Sulfur-containing drugs commonly cause drug-induced pemphigoid, with furosemide being the most common cause. Other agents commonly known to cause drug-induced pemphigoid include amoxicillin, ampicillin, phenacetin, penicillin, penicillamine, psoralen-ultraviolet-A light, and beta-blockers.
