Stevens-Johnson syndrome induced by the cross-reactivity between teicoplanin and vancomycin

Abstract: Cross-reactivity between vancomycin and teicoplanin is rare. SJS attributable to sequential treatment with these two antibiotics has not been reported previously. Care should be taken when prescribing vancomycin in patients with a previous documented skin eruption to teicoplanin, especially in those who carry any susceptibility alleles to SJS/TEN.

“…In one study, 53.8% of patients who experienced leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, and rash secondary to vancomycin administration had a subsequent adverse drug reaction to teicoplanin [73]. Notably, there are also case reports of DRESS, SJS, and glycopeptide-induced vasculitis associated with vancomycin use that was further exacerbated by subsequent teicoplanin administration and only resolved after the discontinuation of teicoplanin [72,74,75].…”
