Hepatotoxicity after high‐dose intravenous methylprednisolone in multiple sclerosis patients

2017 
Key Clinical Message Hepatotoxicity is a rare adverse event of methylprednisolone that should be considered in clinical practice. In patients at risk, we propose liver function surveillance, by measuring hepatic enzymes concentration 15–30 days after methylprednisolone administration. Additionally, we propose ACTH, dexamethasone, or plasma exchange as alternate treatment options for these patients.
