Folate antagonists have been reported to possibly increase the likelihood of hematologic reactions (e.g., agranulocytosis, anemia) associated with oral dapsone. The effect on topically administered dapsone is unknown. Exposure to dapsone from the recommended topical dose for acne vulgaris is about 1% of that from a 100 mg oral dose.
