Details</a></p></div></div><div class="body-content whole_rhythm" itemprop="text"><div id="Senna.OVERVIEW"><h2 id="_Senna_OVERVIEW_">OVERVIEW</h2><div id="Senna.Introduction"><h3>Introduction</h3><p>Senna (Cassia species) is a popular herbal laxative that is available without prescription. Senna is generally safe and well tolerated, but can cause adverse events including clinically apparent liver injury when used in high doses for longer than recommended periods.</p></div><div id="Senna.Background"><h3>Background</h3><p>Senna (sen’ a) belongs to a large genus of flowering plants found throughout the tropics, commonly used species being Cassia acutifolia (Alexandrian senna) and C. angustifolio (Indian or Tinnevelly senna). Extracts of the leaves, flowers and fruit of senna have been used for centuries in folk medicine as a laxative and stimulant. Senna is also included in several herbal teas, used for purging and in weight loss. The active components in senna extracts are anthraquinone derivatives and their glucosides, referred to as senna glycosides or sennosides. The sennosides are not absorbed but are hydrolyzed by colonic bacteria releasing the active moieties, rhein and rhein-anthrone which appear to act as local irritants on the colon, promoting peristalsis and evacuation. Sennosides and their metabolites may also enhance intestinal fluid accumulation and increase the moisture content of stool by inhibiting electrolyte and water reabsorption and increasing chloride secretion from the colon. Senna is minimally absorbed. Senna is used in many over-the-counter laxatives in combination with other agents under trade names such as Ex-lax, Fletcher’s Castoria and Senokot. The typical dose is 15 to 30 mg of sennosides twice a day, but is recommended for short term use only (less than one week). Side effects include abdominal cramps and electrolyte imbalance. Long term use or abuse can lead to “cathartic” colon with diarrhea, cramps, weight loss and darkened pigmentation of the colonic mucosa.</p></div><div id="Senna.Hepatotoxicity"><h3>Hepatotoxicity</h3><p>Use of senna in the recommended doses for a limited period of time has been associated with few side effects, most of which are mild and transient and related to its laxative action. With longer term and higher dose use of senna, however, adverse events have been described including several cases of clinically apparent liver injury. The time to onset of liver injury was usually after 3 to 5 months of use, and the pattern of serum enzyme elevations was hepatocellular. The liver injury was usually mild-to-moderate in severity and resolved rapidly with discontinuation. In at least one instance, reexposure led to rapid recurrence of liver injury. Immunoallergic features and autoimmune markers were not present in the published cases.</p><p>In addition, a related plant commonly known as coffee senna or Cassia orientalis has been linked to many instances of acute, severe toxicity with encephalopathy, myopathy and hepatic dysfunction. Outbreaks of “hepato-myo-encephopathy” of unknown cause among children occurred yearly in Uttar Pradesh, India typically between September and November. Investigation eventually identified Cassia occidentalis ingestion as the probable cause, typically occurring in children who eat the leaves or pods of the common flowering weed. While Cassia occidentalis has also been used to prepare tea, the amount ingested was minimal. In children, and rarely in adults, the presentation was precipitous with nausea, vomiting, tremor, abnormal and violent behavior, grimacing and self-mutilation followed by stupor and coma at which time serum aminotransferase and bilirubin levels were typically elevated. In severe instances, the liver injury was progressive, serum ammonia and INR levels rose and patients developed coma, convulsions and status epilepticus that was unresponsive to therapy. Autopsies revealed hepatic necrosis and cholestasis. A similar pattern of symptoms and injury occurs in animals that consume Cassia occidentalis. Whether this syndrome has a similar pathogenesis to the rare instance of hepatic injury attributed to typical senna (Cassia acutifolia or angustifolio) that is used as a laxative is unknown.</p><p>Likelihood score: D (possible rare cause of clinically apparent liver injury).</p></div><div id="Senna.Mechanism_of_Injury"><h3>Mechanism of Injury</h3><p>The liver injury due to senna has been attributed to the anthraquinone derivatives present in the herbal extract, and most cases have been associated with taking excessive doses suggesting a direct hepatotoxic rather than idiosyncratic etiology. Other anthraquinones used to treat constipation have been implicated in causing liver injury with long term use, including cascarosides (cascara) and hydroxyanthraquinone.</p></div><div id="Senna.Outcome_and_Management"><h3>Outcome and Management</h3><p>Liver injury from long term senna use is rare, and most cases have been self-limited and rapidly reversible upon stopping the laxative. However, cases with a severe course with signs of acute liver failure have been described. There is no evidence of cross sensitivity to hepatic damage with other laxatives. Restarting senna after hepatotoxicity has been associated with recurrence of liver injury and should be avoided.</p><p>Drug Class: <a href="/books/n/livertox/HerbalDietarySuppl/?report=reader">Herbal and Dietary Supplements</a></p><p>Other Drugs in the Subclass, Anthraquinones: <a href="/books/n/livertox/Cascara/?report=reader">Cascara</a></p></div></div><div id="Senna.CASE_REPORT"><h2 id="_Senna_CASE_REPORT_">CASE REPORT</h2><div id="Senna.Case_1_Acute_liver_injury_due_to_S"><h3>Case 1. Acute liver injury due to Senna [Cassia angustifolia].(<a class="bibr" href="#Senna.REF.1" rid="Senna.REF.1">1</a>)</h3><p>A 52 year old woman was developed anorexia and progressive weakness followed by confusion and jaundice, having used large amounts of tea prepared from dry senna products to treat chronic constipation for several years. On presentation she was confused, weak and mildly jaundiced. Blood testing revealed serum glucose of 40 mg/dL, bilirubin 6.2 mg/dL, ALT 9160 U/L, AST 6640 U/L, GGT 160 U/L and INR 5.7. She also had lactic acidosis and renal insufficiency. She was admitted to the intensive care unit and soon required ventilation. Her coagulopathy worsened and she developed polyuria and phosphate wasting. She received intensive support and after several days began to improve. She was discharged after a 3 week hospitalization and, when seen one month later, was asymptomatic and all laboratory tests had returned to normal. Tests for hepatitis A, B and C, for autoantibodies and for acetaminophen levels were not reported. The botanicals used for making tea were analyzed and found to represent Cassia angustifolio without metal or other contaminants.</p><div id="Senna.Key_Points"><h4>Key Points</h4><div class="iconblock whole_rhythm clearfix ten_col table-wrap" id="figSennaTc"><a href="/books/NBK547922/table/Senna.Tc/?report=objectonly" target="object" title="Table" class="img_link icnblk_img figpopup" rid-figpopup="figSennaTc" rid-ob="figobSennaTc"><img class="small-thumb" src="/books/NBK547922/table/Senna.Tc/?report=thumb" src-large="/books/NBK547922/table/Senna.Tc/?report=previmg" alt="Image " /></a><div class="icnblk_cntnt"><h4 id="Senna.Tc"><a href="/books/NBK547922/table/Senna.Tc/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobSennaTc">Table</a></h4></div></div></div><div id="Senna.Laboratory_Values"><h4>Laboratory Values</h4><div class="iconblock whole_rhythm clearfix ten_col table-wrap" id="figSennaTd"><a href="/books/NBK547922/table/Senna.Td/?report=objectonly" target="object" title="Table" class="img_link icnblk_img figpopup" rid-figpopup="figSennaTd" rid-ob="figobSennaTd"><img class="small-thumb" src="/books/NBK547922/table/Senna.Td/?report=thumb" src-large="/books/NBK547922/table/Senna.Td/?report=previmg" alt="Image " /></a><div class="icnblk_cntnt"><h4 id="Senna.Td"><a href="/books/NBK547922/table/Senna.Td/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobSennaTd">Table</a></h4></div></div></div><div id="Senna.Comment"><h4>Comment</h4><p>The sudden onset of hepatic failure, lactic acidosis and encephalopathy is characteristic of acute hepatic necrosis due to a direct toxin. In this instance, the patient had been taking an excessive about of senna over a prolonged period, and it was not clear what precipitated this acute decompensation. Possible explanations are that it was triggered by a coincidental infection or dehydration or a change in the formulation of the Senna product. The general features of this clinical case report resemble those of hepato-myo-encephalopathy described from India in children who consume the pods or fruit of Cassia occidentalis. Conventional senna used as a laxative is quite safe, but these reports suggest that an overdose can cause acute hepatic failure with early signs of encephalopathy.</p></div></div><div id="Senna.Case_2_Acute_liver_injury_due_to_c"><h3>Case 2.

She was seen at a local hospital and found to have a mildly elevated white blood cell count (12,000) with 80% neutrophils but normal serum bilirubin, ALT and alkaline phosphatase (Table). She was sent home but continued to worsen, developing confusion and jaundice and was admitted to a tertiary referral center 2 days later with stupor, deep jaundice and anasarca. Blood testing showed a serum bilirubin of 12.9 mg/dL (direct 10.4), ALT 130 U/L, Alk P 43 U/L, INR 2.68 and ammonia 127 µmol/L. Ultrasound revealed a normal sized liver and spleen and mild ascites. A lumbar puncture was normal. Tests for hepatitis A, B, C and E were negative. She was intubated and given antibiotics and fresh frozen plasma. She continued to deteriorate and developed coma, seizures, status epilepticus and died 2 days later, 5 days after her initial presentation.</p><div id="Senna.Key_Points_1"><h4>Key Points</h4><div class="iconblock whole_rhythm clearfix ten_col table-wrap" id="figSennaTe"><a href="/books/NBK547922/table/Senna.Te/?report=objectonly" target="object" title="Table" class="img_link icnblk_img figpopup" rid-figpopup="figSennaTe" rid-ob="figobSennaTe"><img class="small-thumb" src="/books/NBK547922/table/Senna.Te/?report=thumb" src-large="/books/NBK547922/table/Senna.Te/?report=previmg" alt="Image " /></a><div class="icnblk_cntnt"><h4 id="Senna.Te"><a href="/books/NBK547922/table/Senna.Te/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobSennaTe">Table</a></h4></div></div></div><div id="Senna.Laboratory_Values_1"><h4>Laboratory Values</h4><div class="iconblock whole_rhythm clearfix ten_col table-wrap" id="figSennaTf"><a href="/books/NBK547922/table/Senna.Tf/?report=objectonly" target="object" title="Table" class="img_link icnblk_img figpopup" rid-figpopup="figSennaTf" rid-ob="figobSennaTf"><img class="small-thumb" src="/books/NBK547922/table/Senna.Tf/?report=thumb" src-large="/books/NBK547922/table/Senna.Tf/?report=previmg" alt="Image " /></a><div class="icnblk_cntnt"><h4 id="Senna.Tf"><a href="/books/NBK547922/table/Senna.Tf/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobSennaTf">Table</a></h4></div></div></div><div id="Senna.Comment_1"><h4>Comment</h4><p>The sudden onset of nausea, vomiting and diarrhea followed shortly after by confusion, stupor and jaundice is typical of the syndrome of “hepato-myo-encephalopathy” described from India among children who consumed the fruit or pods of the common local weed Cassia occidentalis (coffee senna). This case was unusual in that it occurred in an adult and was not due to acute consumption but to several weeks of intake of the botanical as pain relief from chronic knee osteoarthritis. The liver injury is typical of acute hepatic necrosis or hyperacute liver failure with early signs of hepatic failure even when the bilirubin is normal or only mildly elevated. Hyperammonemia and coagulopathy arise early. This syndrome also has prominent neurologic signs and deaths are often due to encephalopathy rather than hepatic failure. The syndrome is not always fatal and, in some cases, intensive medical support appears to tide patients over the acute toxic effects. Recovery is rapid and seemingly complete. At issue is whether this syndrome is similar or related to the cases of acute liver injury that have been attributed to other Senna species such as Cassia angustifolia or acutifolia, which are used to produce the laxative commonly referred to as Senna (see Case 1).</p></div></div></div><div id="Senna.PRODUCT_INFORMATION"><h2 id="_Senna_PRODUCT_INFORMATION_">PRODUCT INFORMATION</h2><p>
