Abstract

Meningitis is usually produced by an infectious agent, but there are multiple noninfectious causes. Medications may produce both acute and recurrent meningitis. We present a patient with 3 episodes of aseptic meningitis due to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, and then review the topic of drug-induced meningitis.
