Abstract

 Introduction: KETOCONAZOLE is an antifungal agent of Imidazole group which is used in different parts of the body, such as skin, nails, vagina, and etc. HEPATOTOXICITY is one of its potentially fatal complications which can be manifested as cholestasis, hepatitis, and FULMINANT HEPATIC FAILURE. Hepatic complications of this drug are usually started during 6 weeks, but also they have been reported up to 6 months after the treatment. If the LFT changes are mild, the treatment can be continued cautiously, however, it is necessary to stop it evident hepatitis and jaundice are to be occurred. In this group, Fluconazole as a new agent doesn't have severe hepatic complications, so it is preferred in many cases.Case Reports: In this study two cases of 36 year old women, died because of FULMINANT HEPATIC FAILURE due to KETOCONAZOLE induced hepatitis are reported. In both cases, viral and autoimmune hepatitis have been ruled out.Conclusion: Despite the rarity and irreversibility of KETOCONAZOLE induced FULMINANT HEPATIC FAILURE, it is essential in most cases to pay attention to the HEPATOTOXICITY symptoms carefully.
