title: Drug-induced liver disease.
abstract: This year's review is divided into several sections: the first describes drug withdrawals and new general reviews of drug-induced liver disease (DILD), including a review of a classification of drug injury. We review agents newly described as causing DILD, and new reports of DILD from established agents appearing in the year 2000. New aspects regarding the treatment of acetaminophen toxicity are included, and in the final section we deal with prevention of DILD as well as issues surrounding the use of potentially hepatotoxic medications in patients with underlying chronic disease.
