| Sumario: | Adverse drug reactions are a significant public health concern due to widespread drug usage and over-the-counter purchases, necessitating Phar-macovigilance studies to understand treatment outcomes and prevent life-threatening conditions. A case reported was a 3-month-old girl diagnosed with infantile atopic dermatitis presented with reddish maculopapular eruptions, but after receiving Rhus toxicodendron medication, there was severe aggravation of her complaints. Regarding Rhus toxicodendron, no definitive report on previously reported ADRs was found. The homeopathic medicine Sulphur, 6C was prescribed on the basis of totality of symptoms, Materia Medica and miasm. Infantile atopic dermatitis was reduced considerably within 10 days, and it disappeared completely in 1 month 27 days and no recurrence was observed for another 5 months as well. ADRs are crucial to public health, and medical professionals must be educated to report any adverse reactions. Further research and documentation are urgently needed to advance the global acceptance of Homoeopathic drugs.
