We present a case of a patient with significant liver function test (LFT) elevation and rhabdomyolysis in the setting of influenza infection. Patients with influenza infection and transaminitis have a higher mortality rate. There is limited data on the incidence of this complication, as routine laboratory values are not obtained in the emergency department for viral syndromes. Our patient had multiple reasons for transaminitis, including rhabdomyolysis, influenza infection, and possible acetaminophen toxicity. Our case report brings to light a potential complication of influenza infection, transaminitis, and the need for further evaluation to determine its clinical significance.
