== Treatment ==

Drug-induced erythema multiforme should be treated by immediately stopping the causative medication. Cases of idiopathic or infection-associated erythema multiforme may or may not be treated, depending on the underlying cause and the severity of the EM. Acute cases of erythema multiforme are often diagnosed clinically, based on symptom presentation, and treated with systemic [[Corticosteroid|steroid]] medications. Cases of EM known to be associated with HSV are frequently treated with antiviral medications such as [[acyclovir]].<ref name=":1" />
