title: Drug effects on the liver. An updated tabular compilation of drugs and drug-related hepatic diseases.
abstract: Generic and chemical names of drugs and the possible adverse effects of these drugs on the human liver are tabulated. Most drugs compiled in these tables have been approved by the Federal Drug Administration. They are currently available in the United States, and they are listed in the 1983 Physicians' Desk Reference. Some important investigational drugs are listed also. The tables include: (1) generic names of drugs that have caused a characteristic morphologic change, such as granulomatous hepatitis; (2) morphologic diagnoses that have been documented after administration of each drug; and (3) references that can be matched to each drug and to its effects on the liver.
