Abstract EN

Drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) is a rare and potentially fatal severe cutaneous reaction, which has a delayed onset after the initiation of an inciting medication.

After recognition and withdrawal of the causative agent, along with aggressive management, a majority of patients will have complete recovery over several months.

We present a rare case of DRESS secondary to oxcarbazepine with an elevated human herpesvirus-6 titer.
