ResumoWe report a case of severe liver injury occurring on two occasions in a patient ingesting large doses of nicotinic acid. The liver architecture was markedly distorted, with both massive and submassive lobular collapse and marked cholestasis. Complete resolution of biochemical and histologic abnormalities occurred after withdrawal of these drugs.
