Ciprofloxacin induced toxic epidermal necrolysis with cholestatic hepatitis: A case report with literature review and revisit to the Naranjo adverse drug reaction probability scale.

Ciprofloxacin, among the many Fluoroquinolones, has been widely used as a broad-spectrum antibiotic due to its wide range of action and relatively safe adverse effect profile. However, among the cutaneous adverse drug reactions due to Ciprofloxacin, toxic epidermal necrolysis occurring along with cholestatic hepatitis is a rare one. Here, we present a case of a 22-year-old male patient who was diagnosed with toxic epidermal necrolysis with cholestatic hepatitis secondary to Ciprofloxacin.

Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis secondary to Rickettsial infection: A case report.

Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a rare life-threatening condition characterized by widespread activation of the immune system leading to tissue damage all over the body. It is divided into primary HLH due to inborn error in lymphocytes, T cells, and macrophages and secondary HLH which is mostly due to infections, systemic connective tissue diseases, and lymphoid malignancies. Here, we report a 34-year-old man with a history of high-grade fever, chills, and rigor, eschar, splenomegaly with the laboratory findings of thrombocytopenia, hypochromic RBCs with anisocytosis and basophilic stippling, elevated transaminases, and a positive Weil Felix test along with positive PCR results for Orientia tsutsugamushi and the presence of IgG and IgM antibodies.

Determination of level of self-reported adherence of antihypertensive drug(s) and its associated factors among patient with hypertension at a tertiary care center.

The study aimed to determine the level of self-reported adherence to antihypertensive drug(s) and its associated factors among patient with hypertension at a tertiary care center. The authors performed hospital based observational cross-sectional study using semi-structured questionnaires, WHO STEP tool and Hill and Bone high blood pressure compliance scale from December 1, 2021 to February 28, 2022. Descriptive statistics, Chi-square/Fisher's exact test and non-parametric tests were used for statistical analysis.
