conditions with special highlight on skin

HepatobiliaryDrug-induced liver injury (DILI)• Over 1000 medications and herbal products have been
implicated• DILI can be classified in several ways by clinical
presentation, mechanism of hepatotoxicity (predictable or idiosyncratic) and histological finding (hepatitis, cholestasis or steatosis)
• Withdrawal of the offending drug remains the primary treatment for DILI.

• TEN & SJS are life-threatening syndromes with an incidence ranging from 0.5 to 7.1 cases per million person per year.• Percentage of skin detachment determines the
classification (10% – 30%)• A prodromal phase of fever and sore throat precede skin
sloughing.• Mucous membranes involvement occur in about 85% of
cases• Additionally, epithelium of gastrointestinal and respiratory
tract may be involved.

Prognosis (Score TEN)• Age > 40• History of malignancy• Body surface area detached > 10%• Pulse > 120 b/min• Urea > 10 mmol/L• Glucose > 250 mg/dl• Bicarb < 20 mmol/l

Prompt withdrawal of the culprit drug is the cornerstone of management
![Page 35: Drug induced skin emergencies](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052418/58a032b21a28ab5d2e8b4c7d/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
• Wound care: the extent of epidermal detachment should be evaluated. Some centers may surgically debride wounds, others may use anti-shear wound care. • Fluid and electrolyte replacement with nutritional
assessment.• Ocular care• Prevention of infection: sterile handling, antiseptic
solutions• Antibiotics are given according to cultures results.

Systemic steroidsResults from EuroSCAR and RegiSCAR studies done on more than 500 patients from France and Germany DON’T support the use of systemic steroids for the treatment of SJS/TEN.
In addition, since steroids are associated with increased risk of sepsis, catabolism and poor wound healing, their use in such cases is contraindicated.
![Page 37: Drug induced skin emergencies](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052418/58a032b21a28ab5d2e8b4c7d/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Intravenous immunoglobulins
Data surrounding the use of IVIG in SJS/TEN patients are conflicting.

Cyclosporine A survival benefit for patients treated with cyclosporine (dosed at 3 – 5 mg/kg/day) was noted in RegiSCAR cohort study, however further studies are required to confirm its rule in SJS/TEN.
![Page 39: Drug induced skin emergencies](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052418/58a032b21a28ab5d2e8b4c7d/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Tumor necrosis factor inhibitor (Anti-TNF)
• A single infusion of 5 mg/kg of anti-TNF halted the progression of skin detachment and induced rapid re-epithelialization.• Etanercept 50 mg single subcutaneous
injection has been successful in some cases.
