Let \(p\) and \(q\) be two primes, and let \(\ell\) be an odd positive square-free integer distinct from \(1,p,q,pq\). In this paper the authors compute the unit group of some number fields of the form \({\mathbb Q}(\sqrt{2},\sqrt{p},\sqrt{q},\sqrt{-\ell})\). The answer is split into \(7\) cases which depend of the residues of \(p,q\) modulo \(8\) and on whether \(p\) is a quadratic residue modulo \(q\) or not.
