Drug‐induced cholestasis
Open accessAbstract
Cholestatic drug‐induced liver injury (DILI) can be a diagnostic challenge due to a large differential diagnosis, variability in clinical presentation, and lack of serologic biomarkers associated with this condition. The clinical presentation of drug‐induced cholestasis includes bland cholestasis, cholestatic hepatitis, secondary sclerosing cholangitis, and vanishing bile duct syndrome. The associate mortality of cholestatic DILI can be as high as 10%, and thus prompt recognition and removal of the offending agent is of critical importance. Several risk factors have been identified for drug‐induced cholestasis, including older age, genetic determinants, and properties of certain medications. Antibiotics, particularly amoxicillin/clavulanate, remain the predominant cause of cholestatic DILI, although a variety of other medications associated with this condition have been identified. In this review, we summarize the presentation, clinical approach, risk factors, implicated medications, and management of drug‐induced cholestatic liver injury.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
