Stevens–Johnson Syndrome and Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis are forms of a very rare, acute, serious, and potentially fatal skin reaction. The skin condition is usually, possibly always, caused by medications. If you believe that you or someone that you love has Stevens–Johnson Syndrome and/or Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis, it is crucial to immediately seek medical attention.

Stevens–Johnson Syndrome (SJS) and Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN) are two forms of a life-threatening condition affecting the skin in which cell death causes the epidermis to separate from the dermis.  With this condition a person's skin and mucous membranes react severely to a medication or infection. Often, Stevens-Johnson syndrome begins with flu-like symptoms, followed by a painful red or purplish rash that spreads and blisters, eventually causes the top layer of a person's skin to die and shed.  The syndrome is thought to be a hypersensitivity complex affecting the skin and the mucous membranes.  Persons with Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) should seek immediate medical treatment.

Medications are thought to be the most common cause of Stevens-Johnson Syndrome and Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis. More than 200 medications have been reported in association with SJS/TEN. It is more often seen with drugs with long half-lives compared to even a chemically similar related drug with a short half-life. A half-life of a medication is the time that half of the delivered dose remains circulating in the body. The most commonly implicated medications are antibacterial sulfonamides. Other drugs that have been associated with Stevens-Johnson Syndrome include: Anti-gout Medications; Non Sterodal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs); Sulfonamides; Penicillins; Ibuprofen (Advil, Children's Advil, Motrin, Children's Motrin, Advil Allergy Sinus Tablets; Advil Cold & Sinus Tablets; Advil Liqui-Gels; Advil Migraine Capsules; Children's Motrin Chewable Tablets; Motrin Junior Strength Chewable Tablets; Motrin Cold & Sinus Tablets; Motrin IB Tablets; Motrin Infants' Drops, and Nuprin); Ketek; Antibiotic; COX-2 inhibitors Bextra (Valdecoxib); Vioxx (Rofecoxib); Celebrex (Celecoxib); Barbiturates; Sedatives; Feldene (Piroxicam); Naproxen (Aleve); Antibiotic Medications; Zithromax (also known as a z-pack); Keflex (cephalexin); Coreg (carvedilol) (a popular beta blocker); Tolectin; Antifungals; Antivirals; and Anticonvulsants.

When diagnosing and treating a person with Stevens–Johnson Syndrome (SJS) and Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN), it is important to identify the condition early and discontinue the medications that may be causing the skin reaction.  In identifying and diagnosing Stevens–Johnson Syndrome (SJS) and Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN), it is also important to determine what medications the patient has been taking and if prior to the rash appearing, the patient suffered from a flu-like illness resembling an upper respiratory tract infection with fever, cough, sore throat, difficulty swallowing, runny nose, sore red eyes, conjunctivitis, as well as general aches and pains.

After the flu-like symptoms, there is typically an abrupt onset of a tender/painful red skin rash starting on the trunk and extending rapidly over hours to days onto the face and limbs. These skin lesions typically include changes in surface color, target lesions, and blisters.  The changes in surface color are typically flat, red and diffuse (measles-like) or purple (purpuric) spots.   The target lesions or erythema multiforme consists of a polymorphous eruption of macules, papules, and characteristic “target” lesions that are symmetrically distributed with a propensity for the distal extremities.  The blisters are typically flaccid, that begin to merge to form sheets of skin detachment, exposing red, oozing dermis. These blisters are positive for the Nikolsky sign which means if the blisters are rubbed gently skin will exfoliation the outermost layer. Nikolsky's sign is almost always present in TEN.

Developing Stevens–Johnson Syndrome (SJS) or Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN) constitutes a dermatological emergency and failure to timely act can result in a more severe reaction or even death.  When a person has Stevens–Johnson Syndrome (SJS) or Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN), immediate treatment should be sought and all medications should be discontinued, particularly those known to cause SJS-TEN reactions.

A skin biopsy or autopsy is usually required to confirm the clinical diagnosis and to exclude Staphylococcal Scalded Skin Syndrome (SSSS) and other generalised rashes with blisters.

Stevens–Johnson Syndrome (SJS) and Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN) are variants of the same skin condition.  The condition presents as severe mucosal erosions with widespread skin lesions. In Stevens–Johnson Syndrome (SJS), epidermal detachment involves less than 10 percent of the total body skin area; transitional Stevens–Johnson Syndrome (SJS)-Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN) is defined by an epidermal detachment between 10 percent and 30 percent; Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN) is defined by a detachment greater than 30 percent.

Skin reactions during SJS-TEN can be horrific and death from or suffering from the condition either Stevens–Johnson Syndrome or Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis can be a horrific experience for everyone involved.  To help the patient recover it is essential Even worse

Severe skin adverse drug reactions can result in death. Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) has the highest mortality (30-35%); Stevens-Johnson syndrome and transitional forms correspond to the same syndrome, but with less extensive skin detachment and a lower mortality (5-15%). Hypersensitivity syndrome, sometimes called Drug Reaction with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms (DRESS), has a mortality rate evaluated at about 10%.

  5. Jose Andrews is my name, Some people keep questioning God, asking him why he allowed Satan to put in the world deadly diseases, but they never know that anything happening in this life, is just for a particular reason. Here is my story on how I was cured of schizophrenia by a herbal doctor Uwadia Amneifo using his herbal mixture. Few months ago, I realized I had some problem with my system, and later on I begin to forget things easily. I complained to my doctor after his text he said just a little problem with me, but that soon I will be fine. He prescribed for me and I was taking medicine according to his prescription but my condition was getting worse instead of coming down. So I went back to my doctor after some time, he said am having issues with my brain, this continues gradually until it became worse and I was diagnosed of schizophrenia and this disease is also known as Asperger's Syndrome. My doctor told me there is no cure to this disease that I have to live and die with it. It continued for one month and my system was almost shutting down before my cousin brother came to my house to visit and broke to us the news about a herbal doctor he heard about called doctor Uwadia Amenifo that cured some body of Stevens Johnson Syndrome. So he explained how he heard about this herbal doctor uwadia Amenifo and the kind of terrible diseases this doctor have cured. His words were very impressing and I had to give the doctor a try. We made contact with him and he said he can cure me. So my cousin made all necessary arrangement with him, and he prepared herbs and send to me in USA. I took the herbs according to his prescription and behold to cut long story short his herbs works perfectly well, and cured me of my schizophrenia. Today I am hale and healthy and evidence of my healthiness can been seen in this piece of note I wrote myself to tell the world about Herbal Doctor Uwadia Amenifo. Please if you know anyone suffering from brain disease, in a hurry contact Doctor Uwadia Amenifo on his email (doctoruwadiaamenifo@gmail.com), and his cell no is +2349052015874. I wish all suffering from brain problem quick recovery.

  6. Please there is a cure for dementia and no one knows. This is my husband’s story... My husband was a retired force man, he had partial stroke 5 years ago, and then i was still working. His condition got worse and he was hospitalized. After some time of treatment he began to behave abnormal, like someone who has lost memory of event and occurrence. i shared tears the very day i walked to him in the hospital and he could not even recognize me. This is am man that is very playful and highly romantic. Each day i hold him to myself and share tears the more. He was not able to do anything just look at me like a bull dog and do so many abnormal things. Later on doctor brought a recent report and he was diagnosed of dementia this doctor says have no cure that he would die a brainless man. Oh my God i fainted when i heard this. I raised my voice and cry to God to help me from this. So i began to hope and trust God to do miracle. My pastor was a great pillar of encouragement to me. i did all i can to get a cure for him, but none worked out, i spent thousands of USD trying to get a cure for him. But behold a friends doctor came visiting and said to me let’s look if herbal remedy can help him get any better so he gave me your website which is www. Drisimhenmhenherbalhome.com there i saw how people testified of the good works of herbs in their life, so i decided to contact the doctor because his contact details was on his website.. The first time i emailed him, i got no reply from him, so i decided to call him on the phone. I called him, and told him what he could do was to laugh and said to me that anything the enemy have planned against my husband must fail, he said to me that he have cured Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease and this is exactly what my husband is suffering from. After all, he prepared herbs and sent to me, i have to force my husband to take it because before then he was not taking anything from me to eat anymore. but behold sir it was just like a magic gradually my husband begin to get better, better and today sir i am proud to say my husband is totally cured, He you cured my husband of this deadly dementia disease and now i keep my promise i made to him before the cure that i will let the entire world know about his herbs if my husband is cured. Sir, now i am overwhelmed. God bless you sir. My husband has the plans to travel to see the doctor facially and say a physical thanks to him in his country, and i will accompany him down to his home in his country to also show my gratitude him.

  8. Rose Weel is my name, I live in USA. I want to say to the whole world how my husband was cured of his Alzheimer’s disease. Brothers and Sisters, my husband is 78 years old. He is a retired US Army. He fought so many wars, and had encounter with so many dangerous diseases. Before he embarked on his last peace mission to Iraq they were administered injections that will enable them carry out their duties effectively. So they went to the battle field where he lost so many of his colleagues and also he was shot on his throat but bullets don’t have much effect on him. So after the battle he survived it and returned back to USA off course he was rewarded heavily by the government, and that lead to his retirement. But after his retirement, he began to behave funny like forgetting all he did in the past, and sometimes don’t recognize me his wife quickly. I took him to Military hospital, and the doctor said some king of liquid in his body is causing him so many reactions, and this is affecting his brain to cut the long story short, after much diagnoses using EEG, and also the test of PROTEIN 14-3-3 all pointing out to the fact that his brain has malfunction. So he was giving medicines but his condition was still becoming worse even while taking the medicines administered. So we went back to the military hospital, and he was finally diagnosed of Alzheimer’s disease and this the doctor said have no cure. So his conditions began to get worst by the day. I cried out for help, but the government only gave us financial support. I all the time surf the web looking for possible cure until I ran into a blog where a man named James Watt gave testimony on how his cousin was cured of CJD by an herbal doctor called Doctor Uwadia Amenifo. In his testimony he imputed the contact detail of the herbalist. So I quickly copied out the contact details of Uwadia, and I contacted him immediately and explained to him what my husband is going through. He encouraged me and promised me that surly he will cure my husband, so after all necessary arrangement was made; he prepared the herbal medicine, and shipped it to me in USA, so I followed his instructions, and gave the medicine to my husband. Behold just like a magic in my eyes my husband was responding positively to the medicine and in just less than 3 weeks I started giving him the medicine, he was very okay, and in less than 7 weeks my husband was totally curd, and as I speak to you now my husband is totally cured, and he is now very okay, and in good health. So please all here shall help me say a big thanks to Doctor Uwadia Amenifo for helping me cure my husband of his Alzheimer’s disease. Please if you need Doctor Uwadia’s contact details, here is it. Email (doctoruwadiaamenifo@gmail.com) and his number is (+2349052015874). God bless all.

  10. I'm Dorothy Saltzman, From Texas, USA. but curently Reside in Germany. It's no longer Rumors that the Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome ALS And Herpes Virus is increasing Day by Day. The fear is that many people living with the sickness are scared of saying it because of the stigma that comes along with it. I 'm bold enough among many others to state that there is now a Potent Cure to this sickness but many are unaware of it. I discovered that I was infected with ALS virus 3months Ago, After a Herbal Medical Check-Up. My Doctor EHI, told me and I was shocked, confused and felt like my World has crumbled. I was dying slowly due to the Announcement of my Medical Practitioner but he assured me that I could leave a normal life if I took my Medications (as there was no Medically known Cure to Herpes). I went from Churches to Churches but soon found that my Case needed urgent Attention as I was growing lean due to fear of dying anytime soon. In a bid to look for a lasting solution to my Predicament, I sought for solutions from the Voodoo World. I went online and searched for every Powerful Trad-medical Practitioner that I could Severe, cos I heard that the African Voodoo Priests had a cure to the Herpes Syndrome. It was after a little time searching the Web that I came across one Dr EHI (A Powerful African Voodoo Priest), Who offered to help me at a Monetary fee. I had to comply as this was my Final bus-stop to receiving a perfect healing. My last resolve was to take my life by myself, should this plan Fail. At last it worked out well. He gave me some steps to follow and I meticulously carried out all his Instructions. Last month, to be precise, I went back to the hospital to conduct another test and to my Amazement, the Results showed that " I am NEGATIVE". You can free yourself of this Herpes virus by consulting this great African Voodoo Priest via this e-mail:(drehicurehome123@gmail.com) or call and whats-app him on +2349030589283 He will help you and his Herbal Medication is Sure. He has the Cure on all this Disease/Virus as He told me and it listed. GENITAL WARTS/ PREGNANCY. EPILEPSY. GENPILENCIN, HIV/AIDS, MADNESS, WEAK ERECTION, WATERY SPERM, TUBERCULOUSES, PENIS ENLARGEMENT, PREGNANCY, DIABETICS, STROKE, EXPANDS OF PENIS BREAST H.P.V TYPE 1 TYPE 2 TYPE 3 AND TYPE 4.

I PRAY TO GOD TO NEVER LET ME AND MY FAMILY FORGET YOU IN OUR LIFE

    Why go the Expensive Treatment? when Dr. EHI is there to help you get rid of that
    Incurable Disease with his Herbs and Healing Oil. I contracted Genital Herpes 2 years ago, I saw this Awesome Testimonies you can view on google during my research for Herpes Cure from an article made by Alexander Millin and Lancelot Morgan, How they but got Cured from HIV/HERPES VIRUS Respectively. They also dropped the Contact Address of this Great Man: drehicurehome123@gmail.com Advising that if anyone need help to Cure any Incurable Disease or Viral Infection that he should Contact This Great Man. I contacted him, thank God I did. I'm still in shock that the Herbal Treatment he sent to me actually Works. It seems so simple, and in a lots of ways I guess its simple.
