Erratum to "An Updated Review of the Molecular Mechanisms in Drug Hypersensitivity".

[This corrects the article DOI: 10.1155/2018/6431694.].

In the article titled “An Updated Review of the Molecular Mechanisms in Drug Hypersensitivity” [1], the format of Table 1 was unclear. Additionally, “B∗38:01 SJS/TEN Spanish [231]” should belong to Phenytoin not Carbamazepine. The updated table is shown below.
