Abstract:Considering previous reactions, laboratory findings and results of the oral challenge test, we suggest that our patient meets the criteria for DIES by amoxicillin. We performed a comprehensive literature search and found three cases of DIES reported in children and one in an adult patient who developed a severe reaction with shock.In our opinion, the clinical awareness on DIES and its potential severity should be improved and it is important to distinguish it from side effect of the drug.
