摘要

在西方国家，药物性肝损伤是导致急性肝衰竭的最常见原因之一。尽管停用了致病药物，但预后仍然不容乐观。我们描述了一例更年期妇女服用一种名为 "Provitalize "的草药补充剂以缓解潮热和腹胀的病例。这是第一例因服用这种保健品而导致肝损伤的病例报告。她最初表现为轻度黄疸和转氨酶升高。不幸的是，她的病情迅速发展为脑病，出现多器官衰竭，随后死亡。

Acute Liver Failure Induced by Provitalize: A Menopause Supplement Concocted From Herbs & Probiotics.

Drug-induced liver injury is one of the most common causes of acute liver failure in the Western world. Despite discontinuation of the offending agent, it can still tax a grim prognosis. We describe a case of a menopausal woman taking a herbal supplement called "Provitalize" to relieve hot flashes and bloating. This is the first case report of liver injury from this supplement. She initially presented with mild jaundice and elevated transaminases. Unfortunately, she rapidly progressed to encephalopathy, experienced multiorgan failure, and then died.
