    Author: Heaton NR, Edmonds EV, Francis ND, Bunker CB, Bowling JC, Morar N.
    Journal: Clin Exp Dermatol; 2004 Nov; 29(6):612-3. PubMed ID: 15550134.
    Abstract:
    Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) is a serious cutaneous reaction and is most commonly drug induced. It is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. We describe a patient who developed fatal TEN after re-exposure to lansoprazole. Three years previously he presented with erythema multiforme due to the same drug. To our knowledge this is the first published report of TEN occurring with lansoprazole.
