Cholestasis caused by medicinal and chemical agents is an increasingly well-recognized cause of liver disease. Clinical drug-induced cholestatic syndromes producing jaundice and bile duct injury can mimic extrahepatic biliary obstruction, primary biliary cirrhosis, and sclerosing cholangitis, among others. This article updates the various forms of drug-induced cholestasis, focusing on the clinicopathologic features of this form of hepatic injury and on the known or putative mechanisms by which drugs and chemicals lead to cholestasis.
