Drug rash with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), and Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) are rare and life-threatening conditions that may be precipitated by anticonvulsive agents. We describe a patient with overlapping features of these hypersensitivity syndromes. |
