Abstract

SUMMARY. General information about toxic, primarily drug-induced, and viral hepatitis is provided. The main hepatotoxic drugs are listed. Their classification, mechanism of action, clinical symptoms, biochemical and morphological changes in various toxic liver lesions are highlighted. The general characteristics of viral hepatitis are given, primarily with an emphasis on their differential diagnosis with hepatotoxic lesions. The main signs of viral and toxic hepatitis are grouped in the table.
