The side effects range from skin rashes to fulminant hepatotoxicity. The most of the side effects are manifested in the first 6-10 weeks indicating a need for close monitoring and follow-up of the patient in first few weeks. We hereby are presenting a case of a 41-year-old female who developed exfoliative dermatitis after 4 weeks of therapy.
