Abstract:

Drug-induced liver injury is an acute and potentially severe adverse effect. There are few reports on the adverse reactions caused by minocycline. It has been reported that long-term high-dose minocycline causes liver injury, which is characterized by abnormal liver function and elevated alanine aminotransferase. However, there are few reports of severe liver dysfunction caused by minocycline in short-term conventional doses. This article introduces relevant cases for clinical reference. A 32-year-old female patient took minocycline for acne, resulting in subacute hepatic failure. After treatment, coagulation function and liver function have improved.
