Anti-Tubercular Drug-Induced Liver Injury: Current Understanding and Emerging Directions. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Most common adverse effect causing cessation of anti‐tubercular treatment (ATT) is drug‐induced liver injury (DILI) which is unpredictable due to its idiosyncratic nature. ATT is the most common cause of DILI and drug‐induced acute liver failure (ALF) in South East Asia.
