Background & Aims: Nitrofurantoin (NTF) is widely used for the treatment (short-term) and prevention (long-term) of urinary tract infections. We aimed to describe the clinical characteristics, outcomes, and HLA risk factors for NTF-induced liver injury (NTF-DILI) among individuals enrolled in the Drug Induced Liver Injury Network (DILIN).
Methods: Seventy-eight individuals with definite, highly likely, or probable NTF-DILI were enrolled into DILIN studies between 2004-2020.
