ANDREOLI, M X et al. Progression to toxic epidermal necrolysis by using lamotrigina: In connection of a case. Rev. argent. dermatol. [online]. 2008, vol.89, n.3, pp.188-192. ISSN 1851-300X.
The Stevens Johnson Syndrome, the Overlape Syndrome (SSJ / NET), and the Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis are clinical cutaneous mucouse forms due to drugs administration and most frequently due caused by antiepileptic. We communicate the case of a patient treated with lamotrigina for epilepsy, who presented an incipient case of Stevens Johnson Syndrome, worsened rapidly causing a Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis. Nevertheless, the patient gained a satisfactory answer due to high doses of corticoids, which were given from the beginning as well as the measures and the support of the whole medical team of the hospital.
