El síndrome de Stevens-Johnson es una entidad de baja prevalencia que muchas veces requiere internación en unidades de cuidados críticos, siendo necesario un diagnóstico precoz y un tratamiento oportuno de urgencia en el que se incluyan las medidas de sostén y el tratamiento farmacológico, solo así será posible disminuir la morbimortalidad y las potenciales secuelas que puede causar esta enfermedad.
