title: Fatal outcome of nevirapine-associated toxic epidermal necrolysis.
abstract: The irregular use of antiretroviral therapy (ART) can result in ART-resistance but can also lead to a sensitization between agents with a cross-sensitivity. We report a case of nevirapine-associated toxic epidermal necrolysis resulting in death in an HIV-infected man.
