Admission laboratory testing revealed evidence of acute hepatitis and seropositivity for liver\u2013kidney microsome antibodies. Liver biopsy findings of diffuse portal tract and lobular inflammation with a prominent eosinophilic infiltrate were consistent with drug-related hepatitis. The patient was discharged after one week of treatment with tocopherol and glutathione. Three months after discharge, transaminase levels were normal. At 6 months, seropositivity for liver\u2013kidney microsome antibodies was still present, but considerably less intense. The patient had suffered 2 previous episodes of \u201cacute hepatitis of unknown origin,\u201d and both had occurred after cetirizine use.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>DISCUSSION<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Use of the Naranjo probability scale indicated cetirizine as the probable cause of acute hepatitis, and the positivity for liver\u2013kidney microsome antibodies is suggestive of an autoimmune mechanism for liver damage. As of September 13, 2004, ours is the fourth reported case of acute hepatitis associated with cetirizine and the second in which liver\u2013kidney microsome antibodies have been documented.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>CONCLUSIONS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Although cetirizine is
