Halogenodermas are skin eruptions that result after exposure to halogen-containing drugs or substances. This may last several weeks after drug use is discontinued. This is becuase of the slow elimination rate of iodides and bromides. Medications given for halogenoderma may include topical and systemic corticosteroids, diuretics, and cyclosporine. [1]
