What is Hepatotoxicity in TB Treatment Outcomes about?

This study investigates the incidence of drug-induced liver injury (DILI) in tuberculosis (TB) patients with chronic liver disease, comparing those with cirrhosis to those with chronic hepatitis. Out of 56 patients, 58.9% experienced DILI, with no significant difference between the two groups, and overall treatment success was low at 55.4%. The findings highlight the high risk of DILI, particularly with isoniazid, but indicate that treatment outcomes can be maintained despite the presence of cirrhosis.
