About this episode
In this episode, we discuss the fundamentals of evaluating a patient with a dermatologic emergency. There are four main dermatologic emergencies that we'll cover in this podcast: Drug hypersensitivity syndrome (formerly known as DRESS), SJS/TEN, Serum sickness like reaction (SSLR) and acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP). We discuss management for each of the conditions - but the most important management point to take away is stop the offending drug!
