title: Acute structural hepatic alteration due to poisons.
abstract: Drug hepatitis emphasized the importance of a careful history including the question to the use of laxatives in all patients with both acute and chronic hepatitis. From predictable and unpredictable hepatotoxicity we should learn to be alert to the possibility of new and unrecorded hepatic lesions resulting from drugs and other chemical or environmental toxins.
