Among the most well-known causative agents is allopurinol, commonly prescribed for managing asymptomatic gout. Allopurinol-induced DRESS syndrome is associated with high mortality rates and significant long-term sequelae.

Article Synopsis
- - A-DRESS (Allopurinol-induced Drug Reaction with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms) is more common in adults but rare in children, with a case reported in a 16-year-old male with a severe reaction, including fever, rash, shock, and eosinophilia.
- - The patient's condition improved after stopping allopurinol and receiving treatment with intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIG) and corticosteroids, highlighting the importance of quick intervention.
- - This case emphasizes the need for early diagnosis of DRESS in pediatric patients and suggests that IVIG may play a significant role in their treatment.
