Drug-induced lupus and autoimmune hepatitis secondary to infliximab for psoriasis

© 2013 The Authors. Australasian Journal of Dermatology © 2013 The Australasian College of Dermatologists..

We describe a case of previously unreported autoimmune hepatitis and lupus-like syndrome induced by infliximab treatment for chronic plaque psoriasis. The condition resolved after withdrawal of infliximab, with the liver injury having been reversed and minimal periportal fibrosis. In a two-part discussion we review the current literature on the pharmacology of infliximab and provide recommendations for management of infliximab side effects.
