並列摘要


Modafinil is a central nervous system stimulant, which has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of narcolepsy associated excessive daytime sleepiness, sleep disorder related to shift work, and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. Modafinil is known to have several cutaneous side effects. Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) is life-threatening and severe adverse cutaneous drug reactions characterized by epidermal detachment presenting as blisters and areas of denuded skin. Two cases of SJS due to modafinil treatment were reported in this article. Practitioners and patients need to be aware of the initial clinical signs of severe cutaneous adverse drug reactions such as fever, influenza-like symptoms, dysphagia or burning eyes. Early discontinuation of medication remains the best way to improve prognosis of patients with SJS.
