Tüberküloz tedavisinde gelişen fulminan hepatit ( Olgu sunumu )

Amaç: (INH) majör hepatotoksik bir ilaçtır ve rifampisinle (RIF) birlikte kullanıldığı zaman RIF'in güçlü enzim indükleyici özelliği nedeniyle INH'ın hepatotoksisitesi artabilir. Birçok olguda prognoz iyidir. Olgu sunumu: RIF ve imipenem-cilastinle birlikte, sadece 8 günlük INH tedavisi sonrası ağır fulminant hepatit gelişen bir olgu sunuyoruz. Sonuç: Karaciğer hasarı yapan ilaçlar antitüberküloz ilaçlarla birlikte kullanılmamalıdır.

Severe fulminant hepatitis after a treatment of tuberculosis ( Case report )

Objective: Isoniazid (INH) is a major hepatotoxic drug and with rifampicin (RIF) which is a powerful enzyme inducer may enhance the hepatotoxicity of INH. The prognosis is good in most cases. Case report: We reported a patient who developed severe fulminant hepatitis after a treatment with INH for only 8 days combined with RIF and imipenem-cilastine. Conclusion: Antituberculosis drugs causing liver damage should not be used together.
