[Acute pancreatitis induced by isoniazid, a casual association].
We describe the case of a 68 years-old who developed 2 attacks of acute pancreatitis during the treatment with isoniazid used as a chemoprophylactic. There was not recurrence of symptoms for the last year after isoniazid was withdrawn. This report suggest that isoniazid can induce acute pancreatitis.
