| Abstrakt: |
A generalized fixed drug eruption (FDE) is an uncommon but potentially dangerous reaction to medication. In this case series, we present 1 patient with a generalized FDE and 2 patients with generalized bullous FDE that resolved with cyclosporine, though 1 patient required close monitoring in the intensive care unit. Immediate acceleration of care upon development and recognition of generalized bullous FDE is essential, as the mortality rate is similar to Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS)/toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN). |
