What are the immediate steps we should take if my aunt, who has been taking Carbamazepine 500 mg, Amitriptyline 10 mg, and Folvite for an inactive brain infection, is now developing a severe, life-threatening allergic skin reaction (like Stevens-Johnson syndrome) to her Carbamazepine?

First, stop her carbamazepine right away, as this is the most crucial step if a severe skin reaction is suspected. Second, take her to the nearest emergency room immediately or call emergency services. This requires urgent medical evaluation. Do not stop her amitriptyline or Folvite (folic acid) without a doctor's guidance, but prioritize getting her emergency care for the skin reaction. Please bring all her medication bottles with you to the hospital so the medical team knows exactly what she has been taking.
