TY - JOUR PY - 2022// TI - Turmeric-associated drug-induced liver injury JO - ACG case reports journal A1 - Sunagawa, Shawnalyn W. A1 - Houlihan, Conor A1 - Reynolds, Brandon A1 - Kjerengtroen, Sara A1 - Murry, Daryl J. A1 - Khoury, Nathalie SP - e00941 EP - e00941 VL - 9 IS - 12 N2 - Turmeric is a common herbal supplement used for its possible anti-inflammatory and other properties. It is marketed as safe with few reports of major adverse effects directly related to oral supplementation. We report a case of turmeric supplement-induced liver injury in a 49-year-old woman admitted with elevated aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase with no history of liver disease or alcohol use disorder. Thus, this case re-emphasizes the importance of evaluating herbal and dietary supplements as potential drug-induced liver injury causes.
