Abstract
Fatal toxic epidermal necrolysis is described in a patient, treated concurrently with sodium aurothiomalate and benoxaprofen, who had previously had these two drugs separately, with only minor mucocutaneous problems while on gold, and no adverse effects from benoxaprofen. It is suggested that benoxaprofen could act synergistically with gold, resulting in enhancement of mucocutaneous side-effects, which are common to both these drugs.
