abstract: We present 2 cases of erythema multiforme following a combined tetanus and diphtheria revaccination and a combined diphtheria, tetanus, acellular pertussis inactivated polio and Haemophillus influenzae type B vaccine respectively, suggesting vaccines containing diphtheria and tetanus toxoids as a potential precipitating factor to erythema multiforme.
