Abstract
VERA, O et al. Adverse reaction caused by antituberculosis drugs in a patient with pulmonary and meningous tuberculosis. Rev. OFIL·ILAPHAR [online]. 2020, vol.30, n.2, pp.147-149. Epub Mar 15, 2021. ISSN 1699-714X. https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/s1699-714x2020000200016.
The hypersensitivity reactions to drugs constitute a condition that generates very diverse clinical signs and symptoms. A clinical case of an adverse reaction to antituberculosis drugs of an allergic type in an adult woman with a diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB) is presented. The identification and suppression of the drugs causing the adverse reaction allowed to redirect and end the treatment with excellent clinical evolution.
