Abstract

The correlation between serum anti-tuberculosis (TB) drug levels and the drug-induced hepatotoxicity (DIH) remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether anti-TB DIH is associated with basal serum drug levels. Serum peak levels of isoniazid (INH), rifampicin (RMP), pyrazinamide (PZA), and ethambutol (EMB) were analyzed in blood samples 2 hr after the administration of anti-TB medication. Anti-TB DIH and mild liver function test abnormality were diagnosed on the basis of laboratory and clinical criteria. Serum anti-TB drug levels and other clinical factors were compared between the hepatotoxicity and non-hepatotoxicity groups. A total of 195 TB patients were included in the study, and the data were analyzed retrospectively. Seventeen (8.7%) of the 195 patients showed hepatotoxicity, and the mean aspartate aminotransferase/alanine aminotransferase levels in the hepatotoxicity group were 249/249 IU/L, respectively. Among the 17 patients with hepatotoxicity, 12 showed anti-TB DIH. Ten patients showed PZA-related hepatotoxicity and 2 showed INH- or RMP-related hepatotoxicity. However, intergroup differences in the serum levels of the 4 anti-TB drugs were not statistically significant. Basal serum drug concentration was not associated with the risk anti-TB DIH in patients being treated with the currently recommended doses of first-line anti-TB treatment drugs.
