The syndrome is often secondary to the usage of drugs, of which allopurinol, penicillins, sulfa drugs, ibuprofen, sodium valproate, phenytoin, lamotrigine, and carbamazepine are commonly implicated. Stevens-Johnson syndrome due to amitriptyline combination has not been reported in the literature before.
