Drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS), also referred to as drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome is a rare, potentially life-threatening adverse drug reaction characterized by rash with fever, lymphadenopathy, hematologic abnormalities such as eosinophilia or atypical lymphocytes, and internal organ involvement. DRESS occurs within 2 to 6 weeks after the beginning of the pharmacologic treatment.1
