|August 1, 1983
Abstract:
A 66-year-old epileptic patient developed toxic epidermal necrolysis following an oral loading dose of phenytoin. Administration of the drug was discontinued and the patient survived. Two years later he inadvertently received phenytoin again. The reexposure to phenytoin led to a fatal toxic epidermal necrolysis.
