Abstract

A 55-year-old woman with fever, a rash and elevated liver enzymes was diagnosed with drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS). After treatment with high-dose prednisolone and withholding carbamazepine, all symptoms resolved completely. This case emphasises the importance of recognizing a drug-related cause of fever and rash other than infectious causes.
