Spectrum of offending drugs and cutaneous adverse drug reactions requiring hospitalisation in a tertiary South African hospital in TB/HIV endemic setting.

Introduction: Cutaneous immune-mediated adverse drug reactions are more prevalent in people with human immunodeficiency virus (PWH). Severe cutaneous adverse drug reactions (SCAR) are a life-threatening subset of cutaneous adverse drug reactions (CADRs) and a significant public health issue in settings endemic for human immunodeficiency virus and tuberculosis. However, limited data are available on CADR requiring hospitalisation in African settings.
