It is most commonly caused by alcohol and drugs&#44; particularly painkillers and various industrial chemicals&#46; In some cases&#44; toxic hepatitis develops within a few hours or days of exposure to the toxin&#46; In other cases it can take months before the signs and symptoms of toxic hepatitis become visible&#46; The symptoms often subside when exposure to the toxin stops&#46; Toxic hepatitis can permanently damage the liver&#44; and in some cases can lead to liver failure&#46; Mild forms of toxic hepatitis may not cause any symptoms and will be detected only by laboratory tests&#46; Common signs and symptoms of toxic hepatitis include jaundice&#44; itching&#44; pain in the upper right abdomen&#44; fatigue&#44; loss of appetite&#44; nausea and vomiting&#44; rash&#44; weight loss&#44; and dark or tea-colored urine&#46; The liver performs myriad vital functions&#44; including the metabolism and removal of most chemicals from the blood stream and body&#46; Though the liver has a great potential to repair&#44; constant exposure to toxic substances can cause serious and sometimes irreversible damage&#46; More than 1000 drugs have showed toxic effects on the liver&#44; of which 16&#37; are neuropsychiatric drugs&#46; Antidepressants &#40;TCA or SSRI&#41;&#44; mood stabilizers and antipsychotics imply certain biological and&#47;or clinical hepatotoxicity&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0060"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span></a> In the literature&#44;
