Abstract
Nevirapine is a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor commonly used in human immunodeficiency virus-1 multidrug regimens and associated with life-threatening cutaneous reactions. Here, we report the successful use of intravenous immunoglobulin in a pediatric patient with Stevens-Johnson syndrome and highlight the risk of nevirapine usage in human immunodeficiency virus postexposure prophylaxis.Entities:
