Allopurinol-induced hepatomegaly.

Lucy Childs1, Claire Dow.   

Abstract

Allopurinol has long been recognised as a cause of hepatotoxicity; however, severe side effects remain rare. We report a case of allopurinol-induced hepatomegaly causing abdominal symptoms in an elderly woman after long-term allopurinol use.
