Prospective Monitoring of Drug Use: Drug-Induced Liver Injury in a Primary Healthcare Center

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Drug-induced liver injury is still misunderstood in Brazil due to diagnostic difficulties or lack of reporting incidents. OBJECTIVE: To assess the frequency of adverse events related to the use of medicines in a primary healthcare unit, in a city locate southwestern of the state of Bahia, Brazil. METHODS: Prospective study conducted at the Primary Center for Specialized Health (CEMEA), February at August of 2013 in Vitoria da Conquista, Bahia, Brazil.

“…Hepatotoxicity is another serious complication that has been linked to NSAIDs although the incidences are less frequent compared to that of gastrointestinal damage, CVD and renal insufficiency. In line with that, a recent study in Brazil, conducted in the primary health care units, inferred drug-induced-liver-injury as a rare event [187]. However, the seriousness of the issue lies elsewhere.…”

“…In four studies, causality algorithms were used to identify the drug responsible for hepatotoxicity. The Naranjo algorithm used generically for adverse drug reactions was used in one study[ 22 - 24 ]; RUCAM, used specifically in liver injury by drugs, was used in tree studies[ 25 - 27 ]. In addition, 22 different criteria for DILI determination were identified, categorized and summarized in Table 2 .…”
