Abstract:
Drug-induced acute pancreatitis (AP) accounts for approximately 2% of acute pancreatitis. Its incidence is increasing, with more than 260 incriminated drugs. However, very few cases have been described in the literature due to accountability problem. We report our experience with 10 cases whose data were collected over a period of 7 years. Clinical presentation of AP was often equivocal. Ranson's score ranged from 0 to 5. We recorded 5 cases of edematous pancreatitis and 5 cases of necro-bleeding pancreatitis. These pancreatitis were often successfully treated without recurrence after discontinuation of the incriminated drug.

Acute Pancreatitis I: Introduction
Acute pancreatitis is characterized by rapid inflammation of the pancreas, often caused by factors like gallstone blockage or excessive alcohol consumption. Chronic pancreatitis, on the other hand, is a slow, progressive inflammation that may result from long-term alcohol abuse, obstructions in the pancreatic duct, or genetic factors.
The causes of acute pancreatitis include:

Chronic Pancreatitis I: Introduction
Pancreatitis is the inflammation of the pancreas, which occurs when the immune system becomes active and causes swelling, pain, and disruptions in organ function. Pancreatitis can manifest as either an acute or chronic condition.
Acute pancreatitis arises suddenly and lasts for a brief duration, while chronic pancreatitis is a long-term affliction...
