title: Stevens-Johnson syndrome (erythema multiforme) following ingestion of trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole on two separate occasions in the same person: a case report.
abstract: Despite its content of a long-acting sulfa, the manufacturers claim that the literature shows no case reports of Stevens-Johnson syndrome reaction to trimethoprin-sulfamethoxazole. A case report in an enlightened Nigerian who inadvertently took the drug a second time and had second and more severe reactions is reported.
