An increased incidence of liver diseases emphasizes greater caution in prescribing antirheumatic drugs, owing to their hepatotoxicity. However, drug-induced liver injury (DILI) in RA patients represents an aetiological and therapeutic challenge, due to the intertwining of inflammatory and metabolic elements mediated by IL-6 and TNF-α.
In this narrative review, Zekić, et al. evaluate the complexity and prevention of DILI in RA and treatment options involving biological therapy and tsDMARDs.
