Outcomes of Cyclosporine Treatment in Pediatric Drug Reaction with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms (DReSS): A Retrospective Cohort Analysis.

Drug Reaction with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms (DReSS) is a rare but severe hypersensitivity reaction. This retrospective cohort study compared the efficacy of systemic corticosteroids, the current first-line therapy, with cyclosporine, an emerging alternative therapy, in pediatric DReSS patients. We analyzed 14 cases of pediatric patients (<18 years) admitted to The Hospital for Sick Children between January 2016 and September 2023.
