Notes on NSAIDs:
  • Many other prescription and non-prescription medicines contain NSAIDs. Medicines that might have NSAIDs include pain relievers, cough or cold medicines, shots, ointments, creams, gels, patches, eye drops, and nose sprays.
  • Have your doctor, nurse, or pharmacist confirm any medicine you are thinking of using does not contain an NSAID.
  • Carefully check all medicine labels to make sure they contain no NSAID.

It is important to tell all your doctors you had SJS/TEN before and which medicine caused it. This will help them decide which medicines are safe for you.

Other medicines have been linked to SJS/TEN, including:

  • An HIV medicine called nevirapine, which is not used often in most countries
  • Other anti-seizure medicines not included in this table (but this is very rare)
  • Some other types of medicines not included in this table (but this is very rare)
