Anakinra Hepatotoxicity in a Patient With Adult-Onset Still's Disease
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report a 46-year-old white woman with adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) treated with anakinra, a IL-1B receptor antagonist. Within weeks, her liver enzymes deteriorated; subsequent cessation and rechallenge confirmed anakinra-related drug-induced liver injury (DILI). Although AOSD has been associated with liver involvement, little is known about the hepatotoxicity of anakinra. Heightened awareness by gastroenterologists and hepatologists is warranted.
