Acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) is a rare, potentially severe cutaneous adverse reaction characterized by the rapid onset of numerous small, sterile pustules on edematous erythema, commonly accompanied by systemic symptoms such as high-grade fever and neutrophilic leukocytosis. AGEP is most frequently triggered by medications, especially antibiotics, though infections and other exposures can also be causative. We report the case of a previously healthy 27-year-old male patient who developed a febrile pustular eruption with systemic involvement.

The angiopoietin-TIE2 receptor tyrosine kinase pathway plays a key role in regulating vascular homeostasis, but was previously overlooked as a target for rosacea therapy. Angiopausin® is a patented plant-based ingredient identified through a molecular phytotherapy screening program as a positive inducer of the angiopoietin-TIE2 pathway, which is the "gatekeeper of vascular quiescence.

Periorbital cellulitis and angioedema can present with similar clinical features, posing a diagnostic challenge. We describe a case of a 71-year-old female patient with a past history of hypertension and diabetes who developed facial swelling and erythema following trauma. She was initially treated for periorbital cellulitis but was later found to have concurrent angioedema, likely triggered by antibiotics and herbal supplements.
