Drug rash with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms” (DRESS) syndrome is a rare but life-threatening systemic severe adverse drug hypersensitive reaction. The syndrome is characterized by maculopapular rash, fever, lymphadenopathy and single or multiple organ involvement as liver, lung, heart and kidney. The pathogenesis of the syndrome is not clarified completely. It has been suggested that causative drug may induce hypersensitivity as a result of abnormalities in the production and detoxification of its active metabolites. In this report we aimed to present a 13 years old female with DRESS syndrome induced by sulfasalazine and amoxicillin. He had been taking sulfasalazine for seven weeks for treatment of seronegative spondylarthritis and taking amoxicillin for three days for tonsillopharyngitis. We want to remark to this syndrome because of its life-threatening course. Promt withdrawal of the offending drug/drugs following rapid diagnosis is only undisputed way to treat this syndrome.
