Abstract:
Steven-Johnson syndrome (SJS) is a severe cutaneous adverse reaction that can be triggered by medications. Bumetanide, which is a loop diuretic often prescribed for edema associated with heart, liver, and kidney conditions, is a sulfonamide-containing drug that has been linked to severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs). This case report details a confirmed instance of SJS secondary to bumetanide administration in a 64-year-old gentleman. Prompt identification, discontinuation of the offending agent, and supportive care led to gradual recovery.
