id="Indomethacin.Introduction"><h3>Introduction</h3><p>Indomethacin is a potent nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug (NSAID) typically used for chronic inflammatory arthritis. Indomethacin has been associated with rare cases of idiosyncratic drug induced liver disease.</p></div><div id="Indomethacin.Background"><h3>Background</h3><p>Indomethacin (in" doe meth' a sin) is a methylated indole and belongs to the acetic acid derivative class of NSAIDs. Like other NSAIDs, indomethacin has antipyretic, analgesic and antiinflammatory activities. The NSAIDs owe their therapeutic effects to the inhibition of intracellular cyclooxygenases (Cox-1 and Cox-2), resulting in decrease in synthesis of prostaglandins which are potent mediators of pain and inflammation. Indomethacin was approved for use in the United States in 1965 and it continues to be widely used, with more than 2.5 million prescriptions filled yearly. Indomethacin is indicated for management of various forms of chronic arthritis, including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and gouty arthritis, as well as acute shoulder pain and dysmenorrhea. Intravenous formulations of indomethacin are approved for the special indication of closure of patent ductus arteriosis in premature infants. Indomethacin is available by prescription as capsules of 25, 50 and 75 mg, in sustained release forms, as suppositories and as suspensions for oral use, in multiple generic forms as well as under several commercial names, including Indocin, Indochron, Indolar, Indo-Lemmon and Zendole. The recommended dosage in adults with chronic arthritis is 25 to 50 mg taken orally two to three times daily, increasing the dose until the symptoms are controlled or a maximum dose of 200 mg is reached. Injectible formulations of indomethacin are available in single dose 1 mg vials for intravenous use in premature infants with patent ducutus arteriosis. Non-hepatic side effects of indomethacin include headache, dizziness, somnolence, dyspepsia, abdominal discomfort, diarrhea, peripheral edema and hypersensitivity reactions.</p></div><div id="Indomethacin.Hepatotoxicity"><h3>Hepatotoxicity</h3><p>Mild and transient elevations in serum aminotransferase levels are found in up to 15% of patients taking indomethacin chronically. Moderate ALT elevations (>3 times ULN) occur in less than 1% of patients. Frank liver injury with jaundice from indomethacin is rare (estimated at 1.1 per 100,000 prescriptions), and fewer than a dozen cases have been reported in the literature. The latency to onset of symptoms or jaundice is variable, but is usually within 1 to 8 weeks of starting, although instances of latency of 4 to 6 months have been reported. Patients present with anorexia, nausea and vomiting followed by jaundice. Hepatocellular patterns of enzyme elevations are most common, but cholestatic and mixed patterns have been reported. Allergic manifestations and autoimmune features are not common. The injury is usually self-limited, resolving in 1 to 3 months, but several fatal cases have been reported (Case 1), particularly after use of high doses in patients with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis or Still disease. Many of the reported cases of severe indomethacin associated hepatotoxicity have occurred in patients with a pre-existing, underlying chronic liver disease.</p><p>Likelihood score: C (probable rare cause of clinically apparent liver injury).</p></div><div id="Indomethacin.Mechanism_of_Injury"><h3>Mechanism of Injury</h3><p>The mechanism by which indomethacin induces liver injury is not known, but is likely to be mediated by a toxic intermediate of its metabolism.</p></div><div id="Indomethacin.Severity_and_Recovery"><h3>Severity and Recovery</h3><p>Drug induced liver injury from indomethacin is usually mild-to-moderate in severity and transient, but can progress to acute liver failure and death. In large case series, indomethacin is rarely mentioned as a cause of acute liver failure. Rechallenge may lead to recurrence and should be avoided. Cross sensitivity to hepatic injury among the various NSAIDs has not been well defined. After clinically apparent hepatic injury from indomethacin, acetic acid related NSAIDs (sulindac, diclofenac, etodolac, tolmetin among others) might best be avoided, and those belonging to other classes administered with caution.</p><p>Drug Class: <a href="/books/n/livertox/NonsteroidalAntiinfl/?report=reader">Nonsteroidal Antiinflammatory Drugs</a></p></div></div><div id="Indomethacin.CASE_REPORTS"><h2 id="_Indomethacin_CASE_REPORTS_">CASE REPORTS</h2><div id="Indomethacin.Case_1._Acute_liver_failure"><h3>Case 1.

A liver biopsy showed nonspecific changes and activation of macrophages, findings that were attributed to his adult Still disease. He was initially treated with aminopyrine (1.5 g/day) and 6 weeks later indomethacin (100 mg/day) was added. On admission, 8 weeks after starting indomethacin, he had jaundice and prominent hepatomegaly. Serum aminotransferase levels and bilirubin were markedly elevated while alkaline phosphatase and GGT were less than pretreatment values. He had no fever or rash and eosinophil counts were normal. Despite stopping both indomethacin and aminopyrine promptly, jaundice deepened, and he developed hepatic encephalopathy, gastrointestinal bleeding and multiorgan failure, and died two weeks after admission. Autopsy showed hepatosplenomegaly and portal hypertension with superimposed massive hepatic necrosis.

An important feature was that the patient had an underlying liver disease before starting indomethacin, which was attributed to nonspecific effects of Still disease. Thus, the clinical phenotype is more similar to "acute-on-chronic" hepatic injury. In retrospect, the patient may have had nodular regenerative hyperplasia, which would account for the hepatosplenomegaly and minor aminotransferase and more marked alkaline phosphatase elevations. As such, the patient would be more susceptible to a poor outcome from acute hepatocellular injury due to a medication. Another factor complicating the interpretation was use of aminopyrine (also called aminophenazone), another antiinflammatory NSAID which has been abandoned because of toxicity (renal and gastric). Causality assessment would probably designate this case as "possible" or at most "probable" indomethacin induced hepatic injury.</p></div></div><div id="Indomethacin.Case_2._Acute_hepatitis_due"><h3>Case 2.

He had no history of liver disease, adverse drug reactions, alcohol abuse or risk factors for viral hepatitis. He was taking no other medications. He continued to worsen over the next several weeks and has admitted for evaluation. On examination, he was deeply jaundiced with generalized pruritus and tender hepatomegaly but no rash, fever, or other signs of chronic liver disease or hepatic failure. Laboratory testing showed marked elevation in serum bilirubin and a hepatocellular pattern of serum enzyme elevations with prolongation of the prothrombin time (Table). Tests for hepatitis A and B were negative as was serology of Ebstein-Barr virus and cytomegalovirus infection. Abdominal ultrasound showed no evidence of biliary obstruction. Liver biopsy was refused. With routine medical management, he improved rapidly.
