description Drug rash with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) syndrome is a drug reaction commonly occurring in association with aromatic anticonvulsants and allopurinol. It is characterized by triad of fever, skin eruption, and systemic involvement. DRESS is rare with beta-lactam antibiotics and even rarer with ceftriaxone. We describe a case of pneumonia who developed ceftriaxone-induced rash, bicytopenia, eosinophilia, transaminitis and was eventually diagnosed and managed successfully as a case of DRESS.
