Agree with avoiding further MMR immunization. If any agency wants
reassurance, one can measure antibodies and show that he/she has
immunity.

Subject: [CIS-PAGID] E Multiforme following MMR



Colleagues:

I was asked to see a 12 month old child who developed Erythema
Multiforme after receiving an MMR vaccine.



This has been reported previously (Acta Derm Venereol 2006;86:359-60).
However, there are no reports that I could find that describe whether
the recommended second dose of MMR was ever given.



My plan is to treat this reaction as if the MMR were a drug and avoid
future exposures to the vaccine.



Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated.
