Abstract
Interferon β-1a is an immunomodulatory drug widely used in the treatment of multiple sclerosis. Liver dysfunction is a common side effect of this drug and usually develops within the first 6 months of starting interferon therapy. Here, we present our case who developed hepatotoxicity secondary to interferon β-1a treatment.
