Abstract

This retrospective cohort study analyzes the presentation, diagnosis, and treatment outcomes of patients who developed drug rash with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) to tuberculosis (TB) therapy in a TB non-endemic region. Anti-TB agents represented 7.5% of all antimicrobial-induced DRESS cases, and rifampin was the most commonly implicated agent among drugs used to treat TB.
