This makes the diagnosis of drug-induced liver injury an uncertain process, requiring a high degree of awareness of the condition and the careful exclusion of alternative aetiologies of liver disease. Idiosyncratic hepatotoxicity can be severe, leading to a particularly serious variety of acute liver failure for which no effective therapy has yet been developed. These Clinical Practice Guidelines summarize the available evidence on risk factors, diagnosis, management and risk minimization strategies for drug-induced liver jury.enAdultAgedChemical and Drug Induced Liver InjuryFatty LiverFemaleHistocompatibility TestingHumansLiver NeoplasmsMaleMiddle AgedMitochondriaPractice Guidelines as TopicRisk FactorsEASL Clinical Practice Guidelines: Drug-induced liver injury.research article30926241open access10.1016/j.jhep.2019.02.0141600-0641http://www.journal-of-hepatology.eu/article/S0168827819301291/pdf
