ABSTRACT
This work emphasizes the possibility that changing the excipient of some drugs taken over long periods can trigger Toxic Epidermic Necrolysis. This article shows the clinical aspects of a patient who took AZT/r since March/2007. Thus, the suspicion that this drug would trigger Stevens-Johnson syndrome isnt significative. On the other hand, the fact that the antiretroviral vehicle has been changed leads to a strong suspicion that it could be involved in triggering this syndrome. It is reported the clinical description of a 30-year patient eruption associated with the use of retroviral.
