CPIC rec 8093554 [Optional]: If patient is carbamazepine-naïve and alternative agents are not available, consider the use of carbamazepine with increased frequency of clinical monitoring. Discontinue therapy at first evidence of a cutaneous adverse reaction. CPIC pair-level A (HLA-A, HLA-B and Carbamazepine and Oxcarbazepine) [PMID 23695185, 29392710]
Variant:hla-b 1502 neg risk hypersensitivity CPIC A 30 / 100

Variant:hla-b 1502 pos risk hypersensitivity CPIC A 20 / 100
CPIC rec 8093564 [Optional]: The latency period for drug-induced SJS/TEN is short with continuous dosing and adherence to therapy (~4-28 days), and cases usually occur within three months of dosing; therefore, if the patient has previously used carbamazepine consistently for longer than three months without incidence of cutaneous adverse reactions, cautiously consider use of carbamazepine in the future.
