Abstract
Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) is a serious dermatological disorder commonly caused as idiosyncratic reaction to drugs, the most common ones being antibiotics, anticonvulsants and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Here, we report a case of co-trimoxazole induced SJS in a 2 years old male child. [Int J Basic Clin Pharmacol 2013; 2(1.000): 89-90]
