Abstract
Taiwan Drug-Injury Relief System (TDRS) has been implemented since 1999. More than 60% of the approved applications were associated with severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs). Studies assessing SCARs using real-world evidence are very limited. TDRS offers abundant case information as a source of real-world evidence to investigate the characteristics of SCARs in Taiwan. The purpose of this study is to understand the trends and characteristics of SCARs in Taiwan.
