Semaglutide-Induced Liver Injury
Abstract
Semaglutide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist widely used for managing type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity. Reports of semaglutide-associated hepatotoxicity are exceedingly rare. We detail a case of a 44-year-old woman who developed liver injury with elevated liver enzymes after semaglutide initiation for weight management. Liver enzyme levels normalized after discontinuing the drug and worsened upon rechallenge, confirming semaglutide's potential to cause liver injury. In addition, our case study encompasses a literature review of all reported semaglutide-related drug-induced liver injury cases, highlighting the need for diligent liver function monitoring in patients on semaglutide and offering valuable insights into its hepatotoxic potential.

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.
