This document contains 10 references related to Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS). SJS is a severe skin reaction that is often caused by certain medications. Some key points discussed across the references include: carbamazepine and oxcarbazepine are antiepileptic drugs that have been associated with SJS; genetic factors may play a role in individual susceptibility to developing idiosyncratic drug reactions like SJS; and direct interaction between certain medications and HLA proteins in the skin can activate immune cells and cause SJS.
