Average Rating

There are a few books that I rely on every day to provide optimal care to my patients and Litt's Drug Eruption & Reaction Manual is certainly one of them. Various editions of the book have held prominent and easily accessible places on my bookshelf for decades. Often the first hint of an association between a drug and a cutaneous finding appeared in this book before mainstream publications picked it up. And, when I see a patient with a rash that is potentially drug-related - like bullous pemphigoid - the Litt manual has comprehensive lists of all the drugs associated with various dermatologic disease patterns. Since Neil Shear, one of the world's leading authorities on drug reactions, has taken on the duties of editor, I expect this exceptional book to be even better! Mark Lebwohl, MD
