Abstract
DRESS (Drug Rash with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms) syndrome is a rare, life-threatening, hypersensitivity reaction. The prolonged course and non-specific symptoms of the condition make diagnosis challenging.We present a case of DRESS syndrome that was misdiagnosed as urticaria. Investigations revealed deranged liver and kidney functions and abnormal blood count. The presented case emphasizes the need to have a high suspicion for DRESS syndrome in patients who present with jaundice, generalized rash, acute renal failure, and acute liver failure.
