Abstract

Cutaneous drug reactions usually occur with mild and self-limiting lesions, but severe forms can be life-threatening. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, antibiotics, and anticonvulsants often cause drug reactions. Herein, we presented two cases of immunological drug reaction, one with mild and localized fixed drug eruption and the other with more severe and diffuse DRESS syndrome.
