Treatment of Hepatotoxicity
Abstract: An instantaneous or prolonged response to a synthetic or natural substance is known as drug-induced liver injury, or drug-induced hepatotoxicity (DILI). There are two distinct pathways that lead to hepatotoxicity: the more unpredictable idiosyncratic mechanism and the dose-dependent intrinsic mechanism. Several pathways, some known and others speculated, may be involved in the emergence of drug-induced damage. Drug-induced liver impairment can have several causes, and elevated liver tests are one of …
