Review of liver injury associated with dietary supplements.
Stickel F, Kessebohm K, Weimann R, Seitz HK. Liver Int. 2011 May;31(5):595-605. (CUMC Full Text PDF).
This is a comprehensive review of the literature regarding hepatotoxicity associated with various dietary supplements, various teas and herbal remedies, anabolic steroids, and other compounds. Clinical suspicion for hepatotoxicity by substances belonging to one of the above groups is not uncommon in practice; however, finding information in literature about these supplement and medications is often challenging. I found this review to be a very useful guide.
