Abstract

Allergic inflammatory reactions of the oral mucosa due to intake of drugs are rare and non-specific. There is a great implication for the administration of drugs in oral mucosal lesions. Stomatitis medicamentosa may present as extensive and severe ulceration that can contain bullae or vesicles and may also be presented as a diffuse distribution of erythema. We report a case of possible stomatitis medicamentosa after the first dose of the covishield vaccine in a young female patient.
