Abstract | BACKGROUND: METHODS: Twenty-four patients with eruptions induced by sulfonamide-related drugs were studied to detect lymphocyte reactivity to drugs. Both the lymphocyte transformation test and limiting dilution analysis were used as assays for drug-reactive lymphocytes. Peripheral blood lymphocytes were expanded in interleukin-2 and tested for reactivity to sulfamethoxazole and furosemide. RESULTS: CONCLUSIONS:
