Is it possible after hives occur from drug ingestion, resolved, then develope into.sjs?i need the source regarding ur statement.

Independent: Hives and sjs carry different mechanisms, although they may occur together, it is rare to have them together as a reaction to a medication. In short if you have hives from a medication, it is unlikely to develop into sjs.
