Abstract:
Because of the variety of drugs, herbal, and dietary supplements used in clinical practice. Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) has become an important and common cause of acute liver injury and failure. Many drugs associated with DILI have been identified, but there remains some uncertainty about others. Cyclophosphamide is a commonly used antineoplastic medication, and its association with DILI has been reported in animals and has been established in humans with the use of high-dose IV. Oral cyclophosphamide has not been clearly shown to cause acute liver injury, thus highlighting many of the unique aspects of this manuscript. Here, we report a case of cyclophosphamide-induced DILI with the aim to alert clinicians regarding this potential association.
