Bullous skin eruption associated with carbamazepine overdosage. 1983

D J Godden, and J L McPhie

A patient who developed a bullous skin eruption associated with carbamazepine overdosage is described. The authors believe this previously unreported phenomenon to be of clinical importance. Carbamazepine should be considered in the differential diagnosis of drug-induced coma with associated bullous lesions.
