Please help me pray for Norma's 25 year old nephew ... thank you ..love rosemarySJS is caused by almost any medication, including antibiotics, anticonvulsants, sedatives and painkillers. The leading causes of this disease are the following medications:
Ibuprofen (Advil, Children's Advil, Motrin, Children's Motrin and Nuprin)
Ketek, an antibiotic
Dilantin, an anticonvulsant

also rosemary, the "flu like symptoms" he was experiencing happens FIRST before the blister like allergic reaction!!! so it's possible that he already had SJS before he took the motrin. hope this helps.
