AbstractExacerbation of preexisting and development of new‐onset psoriasis have been reported secondary to interferon treatment and, more recently, with newer biologic agents. We report a case of interferon‐induced psoriasis in an adolescent with hepatitis C, a rarely reported medication reaction in children. This case highlights the importance of reviewing a patient's medication list when evaluating cutaneous disorders.
