Toxic hepatitis is a condition in which your liver becomes inflamed due to exposure to certain toxins. Alcohol, drugs, chemicals, and nutritional supplements can induce toxic hepatitis. Toxic hepatitis can develop hours or days after being exposed to a toxin. In some situations, signs and symptoms may not develop until months after regular use. Toxic hepatitis symptoms usually go away once the toxin is no longer present. Toxic hepatitis, on the other hand, can permanently damage your liver, leading to irreversible scarring of liver tissue (cirrhosis) and, in some cases, life-threatening liver failure.
