Stevens-Johnson syndrome in a patient with rheumatoid arthritis during long-term etanercept therapy

摘要

BackgroundEtanercept and other anti-TNF-alpha agents have been indicated as a therapeutic option in severe drug reactions, including Stevens-Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis. Etanercept has been shown to quickly reduce the detachment of the epidermis and shorten healing time. Cases of etanercept-induced severe adverse drug reactions were also described.
