Erythroderma Due to the Association of Pegylated Interferon Alpha-2a and Ribavirin
Journal Title: UNKNOWN - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 2
Abstract
The dermatological adverse effects due to the association of interferon Alpha and ribavirin in patients treated for hepatitis C are becoming more frequent but little is known about them. Such adverse effects range from eczema to the onset or the exacerbation of a pre-existing autoimmune disease. This may influence the therapeutic management of such patients.
