Abstract EN

Clopidogrel is a commonly prescribed antiplatelet agent that carries a rare risk of hepatotoxicity.

We describe a case of severe clopidogrel-induced hepatitis with liver biopsy assessment.

Prompt recognition and withdrawal of the offending agent are imperative to prevent progression and potentially fatal liver injury.
