A member asked:

I have a mild form of stevens johnson syndrome after taking modafinil. dry lips and herpes. will it go away or should i see a doctor?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Stevens Johnson: This is a form of toxic epidermal necrolysis, a life-threatening skin condition, in which cell death causes the epidermis to separate from the dermis. The syndrome is thought to be a hypersensitivity complex that affects skin and mucous membranes. Doubt you have this, but only an examining doctor can make that diagnosis. See them.
