We are reporting a case of Steven Johnson Syndrome brought on by a medication, which manifested as a facial rash and blisters. When someone is genetically susceptible, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, a rare but severe delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction, manifests as widespread blistering, ulceration, and necrosis of the skin and mucosa and causes major morbidity and mortality. With the use of corticosteroids, nutritional assistance, and wound care, it was conservatively treated. The patient made a full and satisfactory recovery.
