Drug-induced Hepatitis

Drug-induced hepatitis is a form of liver injury caused by the use of certain medications or toxins. It can be caused by over-the-counter drugs such as acetaminophen as well as medical drugs, both prescription and nonprescription. Symptoms of drug-induced hepatitis include jaundice, fatigue, abdominal pain, and dark urine. Untreated, drug-induced hepatitis can lead to liver failure, cirrhosis, and even death. It is important to be aware of the medications you are taking and their potential side effects. If you experience any of the symptoms of drug-induced hepatitis, please contact your doctor immediately. Early diagnosis and treatment can prevent serious liver complications.
