Abstract:
The first case of fatal fulminant hepatitis probably caused by nilutamide, a non steroidal antiandrogen derivative, is reported. Nilutamide administration had been continued for 6 days after the occurrence of jaundice, 52 days after beginning of treatment. The rapidly fatal outcome might have been promoted by coadministration of phenobarbital.
