Abstract

An association has been reported between BP and DPP-4 inhibitors. We report three cases of DPP-4 inhibitor-associated BP, with an unfavorable course in 2 patients despite discontinuation of these drugs. Therefore, clinicians should pay close attention to the clinical course of DPP-4 inhibitor-associated BP, even after withdrawal of these drugs.
