The secondary rash coincides with defervescence and typically involves the trunks, limbs, and face; palms and soles are spared. The first analysis detailed data from Study 9801, in which subjects treated with CIDECIN showed a trend towards faster mean time to defervescence (the return of elevated body temperature to normal)--one full day less than patients receiving the comparator agents. Defervescence occurred 3 days later, subsequent blood cultures became sterile, and radiographic changes gradually resolved. |
