Stevens–Johnson syndrome (SJS) is a type of severe skin reaction. [1] Together with toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) and Stevens–Johnson/toxic epidermal necrolysis (SJS/TEN) overlap, they are considered febrile mucocutaneous drug reactions and probably part of the same spectrum of disease , with SJS being less severe.
Stevens-Johnson/toxic epidermal necrolysis overlap syndrome (SJS/TEN); and Acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP). The five disorders have similar pathophysiologies , i.e. disease-causing mechanisms, for which new strategies are in use or development to identify individuals predisposed to develop the SCARs-inducing effects of ...
Other reported side effects were angina and Stevens–Johnson syndrome. Pfizer first acknowledged cardiovascular risks associated with Bextra in October 2004. The American Heart Association soon after was presented with a report indicating patients using Bextra while recovering from heart surgery were 2.19 times more likely to suffer a stroke ...
Allopurinol is one of the drugs commonly known to cause Stevens–Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis, two life-threatening dermatological conditions. [23] More common is a less-serious rash that leads to discontinuing this drug.
Stevens–Johnson syndrome [b] Drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms; Toxic epidermal necrolysis [c] Ataxia [d] Clostridioides difficile colitis; Aseptic meningitis [e] Pseudomembranous colitis; Interstitial nephritis; Fulminant hepatic necrosis; Hypersensitivity of the respiratory tract; Sore throat; Pallor; Arthralgia
Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), also known as Lyell's syndrome, is a type of severe skin reaction. [2] Together with Stevens–Johnson syndrome (SJS) it forms a spectrum of disease, with TEN being more severe. [2] Early symptoms include fever and flu-like symptoms. [2] A few days later the skin begins to blister and peel forming painful raw ...
Toxic epidermal necrolysis and Stevens–Johnson syndrome typically occur 7–21 days after exposure. Anaphylaxis occurs within minutes. Simple exanthematous eruptions occur between 4 and 14 days after exposure. [2] TEN and SJS are severe cutaneous drug reactions that involve the skin and mucous membranes.
