The recreational use of a drug such as 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA), also known as "ecstasy," may be associated with significant side effects. Although liver failure with ecstasy is rare, the use of the drug should be investigated in all patients with severe hepatitis of unknown origin. Early diagnosis and intervention can prevent patients from ending up in liver transplantation. Here, we present a case of a 27-year-old female who developed acute liver injury secondary to recreational intoxication with ecstasy.
使用诸如3,4-亚甲基二氧甲基苯丙胺（MDMA），即“摇头丸”这类毒品用于消遣娱乐，可能会产生严重的副作用。虽然摇头丸导致肝衰竭的情况较为罕见，但对于所有病因不明的重症肝炎患者，均应调查其是否使用过该药物。早期诊断和干预可避免患者最终需要进行肝移植。在此，我们报告一例27岁女性病例，该患者因消遣性服用摇头丸中毒继发急性肝损伤。
