Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) is primarily caused by severe reactions to medications, including anticonvulsants, antibiotics, and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). It can also be triggered by infections, particularly viral infections like herpes or influenza. In some cases, genetic factors may predispose individuals to this condition. SJS is characterized by the rapid onset of painful skin rashes and mucosal lesions, leading to widespread skin detachment.
