Abstract
Vancomycin is a commonly used antibiotic for severe Gram-positive bacterial infections, especially for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus Aureus and coagulase-negative staphylococci infections. Nevertheless, only few cases of toxic epidermal necrolysis have been reported since the introduction of Vancomycin into clinical practice. We report a case of a 35-year-old man who presented with multiple facial abscesses and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus Aureus bactermia and who was started on Vancomycin and later developed toxic epidermal necrolysis.
