Abacavir-induced reaction with fever and severe skin rash in a patient tested human leukocyte antigen-B*5701 negative.
The most serious adverse event caused by abacavir is the hypersensitivity reaction, which is usually associated with the presence of the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) subtype B*5701, as shown in recent studies. We describe the case of a 41-year-old Caucasian female patient, who tested HLA-B*5701 negative and developed fever and severe skin rash 10 weeks after the start of abacavir therapy. Similar reports suggest that not all severe abacavir-induced adverse events occur as a result of classic hypersensitivity reactions, and can present also in HLA-B*5701-negative patients.

[Incidence and reasons of premature discontinuation of abacavir: results of a hospital investigation among 628 patients].
The aim of this study was to determine the incidence of abacavir discontinuation within the first two months of treatment and the link with a true hypersensitivity reaction (HSR).. A retrospective study was made between January 1998 and January 2006 on a cohort of HIV positive patients treated by abacavir delivered by the Bordeaux Saint-André University Hospital pharmacy.. Six hundred (and) twenty-eight patients were included. The reasons for non-renewal of abacavir prescription within the first three months of treatment were investigated. Early discontinuation for adverse effects was reported in 32 patients (5.1%): proved diagnosis of HSR (N=10), uncertain diagnosis of HSR (N=8), and no HSR (N=14). The decision for discontinuation was taken by physician after consultation in 76% of cases.
