Brel, I would NOT recommend Allopurinol to anyone, until you do your own research!

Stevens-Johnson Syndrome Malpractice Lawsuit Results in $6M Verdict

A California jury has awarded $6 million in a medical malpractice lawsuit filed by an 82-year old woman who suffered Steven-Johnson Syndrome (SJS) and Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN) after her doctor prescribed Allopurinol for gout, which it turns out she did not have.

According to the Stevens-Johnson syndrome malpractice lawsuit, the plaintiff alleged that an osteopathic physician put her on Allopurinol to treat gout, without a differential diagnosis and appropriate monitoring for an adverse reaction. The plaintiff claims that the diagnosis was not correct for the pain she described in her toe.

As a reaction to Allopurinol, the plaintiff developed the debilitating and painful skin condition Stevens-Johnson syndrome and its more severe form, called Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis. As a result of the injury, the plaintiff claimed that she is now dependent on others for her daily activities of living.

Stevens-Johnson is a severe skin reaction that is caused as a side effect of several medications. It is highly debilitating and causes the skin to burn from the inside out, producing blisters, severe rashes and the skin may begin to fall the body.

When the skin reaction affects more than 30% of the body, the condition is referred to as Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN). Treatment in a hospital Intensive Care Unit (ICU) or Burn Unit is often required, and the conditions are be fatal in many cases.

Allopurinol currently has warnings about the potential risk of severe skin side effects, and prescribing physicians should be on the lookout for the possible development of SJS. A multinational study published in the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology in January 2008 indicated that Allopurinol was the most common cause of SJS and TEN in Europe and Israel, constituting about 18% of all cases.

Allopurinol is the generic name for Zyloprim, made by Prometheus Laboratories, Inc. There are several generic manufacturers.

According to a press release issued by the plaintiff's Stevens-Johnson syndrome lawyer, Brian D. Witzer, claims against two other manufacturer-defendants were settled prior to trial, but the physician-defendant refused multiple offers to settle for a fraction of the jury's award.
