Drug Induced Hepatic Steatosis - A Review

Shabana Bowsiya , Dr. Naveen Kumar

Abstract Hepatic steatosis is the abnormal retention of lipid within the hepatocytes in the form of vesicles. The vesicles can be micro vesicular or macro vesicular. Various factors such as metabolic, nutritional, alcoholic and drugs can induce hepatic steatosis. Drugs such as Amiodarone, methotrexate, diltiazem, expired tetracycline, HAART, tamoxifen, etc. can induce hepatic steatosis over a period of time. Drug induced hepatic steatosis will remain a problem that carries both clinical and regulatory significance as long as new drugs come into the market.
