Stevens-Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis are severe, life-threatening adverse drug reactions that are collectively known as epidermal necrolysis. The abrupt detachment of the skin and mucositis results in systemic complications such as fluid and electrolyte disturbances, hypothermia, sepsis, organ failure, and death. Management is multidisciplinary and complex. This present article reviews the principles and best practices in the care of patients with epidermal necrolysis. These include having prompt admissions to optimal care facilities, coordinated specialized care during the acute phase, as well as long-term follow-up to manage chronic sequelae. Patients with epidermal necrolysis should be managed in specialized/reference centers that are experienced with the management of the disease. Multi-disciplinary supportive care remains the cornerstone. Current evidence precludes definitive recommendation on any immunomodulatory agent as treatment. Long-term follow-up is required in order to diagnose and treat any chronic sequelae.
