Drug induced liver injury is one of the most serious adverse drug reactions and the most frequent reason of restriction of indications or withdrawal of drugs. Some NSAIDs were withdrawn from the market because of serious hepatotoxicity. We estimated the risk of acute and serious liver injury associated with the use of nimesulide and other NSAIDs, with a prevalence of use ≥ 5%.

Abstract

Drug induced liver injury is one of the most serious adverse drug reactions and the most frequent reason of restriction of indications or withdrawal of drugs. Some NSAIDs were withdrawn from the market because of serious hepatotoxicity. We estimated the risk of acute and serious liver injury associated with the use of nimesulide and other NSAIDs, with a prevalence of use ≥ 5%.
