We describe a patient with a drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome to carbamazepine and a concomitant active infection with human herpes virus 6 (HHV-6). The potential role of HHV-6 regarding the drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome is discussed and the main clinical features of this potentially fatal adverse drug reaction are highlighted.
