  • Title: Stevens-Johnson syndrome in an HIV-infected patient.
    Author: Blitz M, Spivack E, Kerpel SM, Freedman PD.
    Journal: AIDS Read; 1999; 9(3):184-5, 190. PubMed ID: 12728904.
    Abstract:
    Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) is a severe and sometimes lethal form of erythema multiforme most often associated with a drug hypersensitivity reaction. HIV-infected patients suffer a higher incidence of SJS than the general population. This article details a case of nevirapine-induced SJS in an HIV-seropositive man and reviews the clinical features of erythema multiforme, SJS, and their association with drugs commonly used in the treatment of HIV infection.
