Abstract
Glatiramer acetate (GA), a synthetic copolymer, is a frequently used first-line treatment for relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). Probable autoimmune hepatotoxicity during GA treatment has been reported,(1-4) but GA hepatotoxicity in the absence of positive autoimmune markers has not previously been described. Here, we report GA-induced hepatotoxicity in a pediatric patient with multiple sclerosis (MS).Entities:
