Acute liver injury is an alarming condition, as it may lead to a devastating outcome. Of the many causes of acute liver injury, review of medications is crucial to identifying the cause of the injury. Some commonly used medications may unpredictably be the underlying cause of liver injury. We present a case of Peyronie's disease treated with potassium para-aminobenzoate that developed acute liver injury. After starting the new treatment, the patient complained of right upper quadrant pain. He was found to have elevated liver enzymes. The condition resolved after stopping potassium para-aminobenzoate use. We report a potassium para-aminobenzoate side effect of liver injury that can be managed conservatively.
急性肝损伤是一种令人担忧的病症，因为它可能导致毁灭性的后果。在急性肝损伤的众多病因中，审查用药情况对于确定损伤原因至关重要。一些常用药物可能出人意料地成为肝损伤的潜在病因。我们报告一例使用对氨基苯甲酸钾治疗佩罗尼氏病后发生急性肝损伤的病例。开始新治疗后，患者出现右上腹疼痛。检查发现其肝酶升高。停用对氨基苯甲酸钾后病情得到缓解。我们报告了一种可通过保守治疗处理的对氨基苯甲酸钾肝损伤副作用。
