A patient with follicular mucinosis was treated topically and orally with indomethacin. He had generalized plaques and grouped follicular papules but no signs of cutaneous lymphoma. The skin lesions responded favorably to topical application. Oral administration produced a dramatic improvement. No recurrence has been seen for 5 years after stopping the treatment.
