Abstract

Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) is a type IV (subtype C) hypersensitivity reaction that involves the skin and the mucous membranes. The classic manifestation of SJS consists of initial “flu-like†symptoms as malaise, fever, and anorexia in the prodromal phase, followed by cutaneous and mucous membrane inflammation and pain, and other systemic involvement. Symptoms usually begin 4-28 days after the onset of drug intake. SJS can affect many organs as oral mucosa, nasal mucosa, eye, vagina, urethra, gastrointestinal, and lower respiratory tract
