Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Propafenone is a widely used class Ic antiarrhythmic drug that is mainly metabolised by the liver. Hepatotoxicity associated with propafenone is rare, with only a few clinical cases reported in the literature. CASE PRESENTATION: We presented a case of propafenone-related hepatotoxicity, with cholestatic liver injury and development of jaundice and pruritus within 3 to 4 weeks of treatment initiation. Three months after discontinuation, the patient was asymptomatic, and all liver tests normalised. CONCLUSION: With this clinical case, we aimed to emphasise the importance of the medication history and the exclusion of other possible causes of altered liver enzymes.
