    Author: Carducci M, Latini A, Acierno F, Amantea A, Capitanio B, Santucci B.
    Journal: J Eur Acad Dermatol Venereol; 2004 Mar; 18(2):201-3. PubMed ID: 15009306.
    Abstract:
    The authors report a case of erythema multiforme in a 32-year-old woman who was also taking oral terbinafine for an onychomycosis. The patient data analysis showed serological positivity for cytomegalovirus (IgM and IgG) and hepatitis C virus and serological titre of antinuclear antibody was elevated. After a brief review of the literature the authors propose the possibility of virus-drug interaction as a model of adverse drug reactions.
