Cutaneous Eruption

An adverse drug reaction is defined as any noxious, unintended, and undesired effect of a drug that occurs at doses used in humans for prophylaxis, diagnosis, or therapy. A cutaneous eruption is one of the most common manifestations of an adverse drug reaction. This chapter reviews the epidemiology, etiology, diagnosis, clinical manifestations, and differential diagnosis of adverse drug reactions, as well as laboratory tests for them. Also discussed are the types of cutaneous eruption: exanthematous eruption, urticarial eruption, blistering eruption, pustular eruption, and others. The simple and complex forms of each type of eruption are reviewed. The chapter includes 4 tables and 12 figures. Tables present the warning signs of a serious drug eruption, clinical features of hypersensitivity syndrome reaction and serum sickness-like reaction, characteristics of Stevens-Johnson Syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis, and clinical pearls to identify anticoagulant-induced skin necrosis. Figures illustrate hypersensitivity syndrome reaction, a fixed drug eruption from tetracycline, pseudoporphyria from naproxen, linear immunoglobulin A disease induced by vancomycin, pemphigus foliaceus from taking enalapril, pemphigus vulgaris from taking penicillamine, toxic epidermal necrolysis after starting phenytoin therapy, acneiform drug eruption due to gefitinib, acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis from cloxacillin, coumarin-induced skin necrosis, a lichenoid drug eruption associated with ramipril, and leukocytoclastic vasculitis from hydrochlorothiazide.

Johnson Syndrome

Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) are life-threatening mucocutaneous adverse drug reactions characterized by massive epidermal detachment. Cytotoxic T cells and associated effector molecules are known to drive SJS/TEN pathophysiology, but the contribution of innate immune responses is not well understood. We describe a mechanism by which neutrophils triggered inflammation during early phases of SJS/TEN. Skin-infiltrating CD8+ T cells produced lipocalin-2 in a drug-specific manner, which triggered the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) in early lesional skin. Neutrophils undergoing NETosis released LL-37, an antimicrobial peptide, which induced formyl peptide receptor 1 (FPR1) expression by keratinocytes. FPR1 expression caused keratinocytes to be vulnerable to necroptosis that caused further release of LL-37 by necroptotic keratinocytes and induced FPR1 expression on surrounding keratinocytes, which likely amplified the necroptotic response. The NETs-necroptosis axis was not observed in less severe cutaneous adverse drug reactions, autoimmune diseases, or neutrophil-associated disorders, suggesting that this was a process specific to SJS/TEN. Initiation and progression of SJS/TEN keratinocyte necroptosis appear to involve a cascade of events mediated by innate and adaptive immune responses, and understanding these responses may contribute to the identification of diagnostic markers or therapeutic targets for these adverse drug reactions.

Oxcarbazepine is a closely related analogue of carbamazepine and is useful in the monotherapy of seizures with an improved toxicity profile. Its clinical safety has been recently put under scrutiny as evidence has emerged about its adverse drug reactions and it is increasingly being reported to cause cutaneous drug eruptions. Here we report a rare case of oxcarbazepine induced Stevens Johnson - toxic epidermal necrolysis overlap.

Cutaneous adverse drug reactions considers the principle types of unwanted responses to drugs seen on the skin. The most common exanthematous rash is examined as are serious eruptions such as Stevens–Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) along with other reactions. The clinical manifestations are discussed along with likely causative agents. Practical advice about severity, worrying features, and management is given.

Label Information

Drug-related Stevens-Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis (SJS/TEN) are rare but severe adverse drug reactions, termed as idiosyncratic reactions; however, predicting their onset remains challenging. Pharmacogenomic information associated with SJS/TEN has accumulated on several drugs in the last 15 years, with clinically useful information now included on drug labels in several countries/regions or guidelines of the Clinical Pharmacogenetics Implementation Consortium (CPIC) for implementation. However, label information might be different among countries. This mini-review summarizes pharmacogenomic information on drug labels of five drugs in six countries and compared descriptions of drug labels and CPIC guidelines. Finally, we discuss future perspectives of this issue. Pharmacogenomic information on drug labels is not well-harmonized across countries/regions, but CPIC guidelines are a scientifically sound goal for future pharmacogenomic implementation.

Johnson Syndrome

Stevens–Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis are rare severe blistering skin reactions triggered by medications or infections. Over the last 5 to 10 years, a number of important publications have advanced understanding of these diseases and their response to treatment. Importantly, a subset of patients with disease triggered by infection has been identified as having Mycoplasma pneumoniae–induced rash and mucositis, suggesting a reconsideration of the diagnostic paradigm. We present an update on pediatric Stevens–Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis in the broader context of cutaneous adverse drug reactions and focus on challenges and recent advances in diagnosis, management, and prevention.
