療黴舒為臨床上用於治療甲真菌病及表淺性黴菌感染的一種抗黴菌藥,然而在臨床上發現少數使用此藥的病人會產生療黴舒引起之肝炎。吾人報告一例47歲女性於口服療黴舒治療甲真菌病期間產生肝炎,其肝功能在停藥5個月後恢復正常。我們簡單地回顧有關療黴舒引起之肝炎的相關文獻並針對此一罕見的副作狦討論之。
Terbinafine is an antifungal agent used in the treatment of onychomycosis and other superficial fungal infection. Terbinafine-induced hepatitis had been described in rare patients receiving the drug. We now report a 47-year-old female who developed hepatitis during taking terbinafine for ony- chomycosis. Her liver function returned to normal 5 months after discontinuing the drug. We review the literature about terbinafine-induced hepatitis and discuss this rare side effect briefly.
