If you’ve suffered from Stevens Johnson Syndrome (SJS) and wish to seek legal assistance, there are different options you should discuss with an attorney to find out which is right for you. An attorney can help determine whether an individual injury lawsuit or a class action lawsuit is best suited for you, based upon your individual circumstances.

In a Steven Johnson Syndrome class action lawsuit, a few plaintiffs can file a lawsuit on behalf of a group of people who claim they’ve experienced the same type of injury as a result of the same defendant. In SJS class actions, people who believe they experienced Stevens Johnson Syndrome as a result of taking the same medication may wish to join forces and create a “class” to stand up to the maker of that specific drug.

Medications that may be linked to the development of Stevens Johnson Syndrome include Celebrex, Vioxx, Bextra and Dilantin. SJS symptoms may arise in individuals who have severe allergic reactions to these and other medications.

What is Stevens Johnson Syndrome?

First documented in 1922, Steven Johnson Syndrome is a severe skin disease that develops as painful lesions and blisters all over the body and mucous membranes. As SJS spreads over the body, it becomes increasingly dangerous. Once more than 30 percent of the body surface area is affected, the condition may be referred to as Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis Syndrome (TENS).

Symptoms of SJS and TENS include:

• Facial and tongue swelling
• Hives, lesions and blisters that will be the most prevalent and intense in the body's mucous membranes (which are in the mouth, nose and eyes)
• A rapidly spread, red or purple skin rash
• Severe skin pain
• Sloughing or shedding of the skin
• Sore throat (In fact, the first on-set of symptoms resemble those of an upper respiratory tract infection)
