Dear tired10mom,
I'm so sorry about what happened to your daughter. My Dr. just prescribed this drug to me and warned me to stop taking it if I felt itchy or developed a rash. I'm wondering, did your daughter develop a rash at first, or did the burning just start with no warning? You post prompted me to read the entire pamphlet about Zonegran put out by the company. The SJS and TEN are mentioned in there, but the exact nature of these syndrome are not described. You are right, the doctors and pharmacists should do a better job of informing patients. If I were you I would look into taking legal action against the Dr. who prescribed this drug and the drug company too.
