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.

Keywords : Adverse reaction to antituberculosis drugs; tuberculosis; rifampicin; specific IgE.
