- Abstract
- Background: The use of antibiotics increases recently. Accordingly, the incidence of antibiotics associated with drug induced liver injury (DILI) also increases. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the proportion and the clinical characteristics of antibiotic associated with DILI.
Methods: This study is a retrospective study of analyzed adult patients who were referred to the department of hepatology for the elevation of liver function tests and the frequency of elevated liver enzyme of patients with prescribed antibiotics during the same period at outpatient setting as a validation set.
Results: Antibiotics associated with DILI (64.0%) are the most common reason agent among consulting to hepatology department. Rheumatoid arthritis related drugs (11.0%), health supplements (5.0%), herbal medicines (4.0%), anti-viral drugs, anti-inflammatory analgesics/acetaminophen and lipid-lowering agents (3.0%) were next common causative drug for DILI in inpatients setting (training set). The frequency of antibiotics associated with DILI was high in order of flomoxef, cetrazole, ceftriaxone, vancomycin, piperacillin/tazobactam and amoxicillin/clavulanate. In the same period, 32% of the patients who prescribed flomoxef showed elevated liver enzyme levels above the upper normal limit. The prevalence of flomoxef induced DILI (˃3 folds of ALT) was 13% and liver enzyme levels were five times higher than upper normal limits in 5% of flomoxef groups. Hypertension or diabetes was the risk factor of flomoxef associated with DILI.
Conclusions: The Prevalence of antibiotics associated with DILI was 2-14%. Co-morbidity with diabetes and hypertension was the risk factor of flomoxef associated with DILI.
