Abstract: Dress (Drug Reaction with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms) Syndrome is a rare drug toxidermia that is serious and potentially lethal [1]. It is an acute or subacute idiosyncratic reaction that classically associates a febrile dermatosis, hematologic abnormalities (hypereosinophilia and/or atypical lymphocytosis) as well as multivisceral failure. We are reporting two medical observations of Dress Syndrome induced by antiepileptic drugs.
