s- Syndrome

[Guest guest]

http://www.skinassn.org/

s- Syndrome is a potentially deadly skin

disease that usually results from a drug reaction.

Another form of the disease is called Toxic Epidermal

Necrolysis, and again this usually results from a

drug-related reaction. Drugs that have been linked to

s- Syndrome include NSAIDS (non-steroid

anti-inflammatory drugs), Allopurinol, Phenytoin,

Carbamazepine, barbiturates, anticonvulsants, and

sulfa antibiotics. In some cases, the condition is

caused by a bacterial infection, and in many cases

there is no known cause for the onset of

s- Syndrome or Toxic Epidermal

Necrolysis.

These skin diseases can cause massive pain, suffering

and anxiety. People that have taken or are taking

medications such as the ones mentioned above are urged

to familiarise themselves with the symptoms of SJS

(s- Syndrome) and Toxic Epidermal

Necrolysis (TEN). This will enable you to seek

immediate medical attention should the need arise, and

early initiation of treatment can make a big

difference to the seriousness of the disease as this

can stop any secondary infections.

The aim of this site is to keep people informed about

the symptoms, causes and treatment of SJS and TEN, and

also to offer advice with regards to the legal options

of those affected by these diseases. You can find out
