Acta Dermato-Venereologica, 06/24/09
Bertram L et al. - The authors describe a patient originally suffering from a depressive syndrome who developed Stevens-Johnson syndrome after 12 days of treatment with lamotrigine. The clinical symptoms and the inflammation parameters neopterin and C-reactive protein were documented. Neopterin values showed a good correlation with the course of the disease, which, to the best of knowledge, has not been reported previously. C-reactive protein followed the neopterin curve with a delay of 4 days.
