Minocycline-induced hepatitis with autoimmune features and neutropenia

Abstract

Minocycline can cause various types of hepatotoxicity. We report an 18-year-old male who developed a delayed onset of minocycline-induced cholestatic hepatitis with autoimmune features and neutropenia. He responded to withdrawal of the drug and a short course of corticosteroids. If minocycline is to be administered, then periodic monitoring for hepatoxicity is recommended.
