Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS) is an acute, self-limited disease characterized by severe mucosal erosions and widespread erythematous skin lesions. The majority of cases are drug-induced, with NSAID (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs) being a common cause. This article presents an observational case report of a 46-year-old male who developed SJS after taking an over-the-counter diclofenac tablet for cervical pain. The patient exhibited severe itching, swelling over the scrotum, lips, and body, blisters, and erythematous skin lesions and erosions, along with difficulty in oral habits. The Naranjo causality assessment indicated the reaction was "probable". He was treated with ceftriaxone and dexamethasone. The report concludes that hypersensitivity reactions like SJS can be triggered by NSAIDs such as diclofenac, highlighting the need for careful monitoring and precise medication management by healthcare professionals.
