چکیده
Intrahepatic cholestasis and cutaneous bullae associated with glibenclamide therapy are described in a 61-year-old diabetic patient who presented wit hypoglycaemic coma. These features have not previously been reported as side effects of glibenclamide therapy, but intrahepatic cholestasis may occur with chlorpropamide, a similar sulphonylurea agent. The mechanism of this cholestasis is not clear at present.

Management of Hepatic Cholestasis
Hepatic cholestasis is characterized by elevated alkaline phosphatase and gama - glutamyl transpeptidase levels which is then followed by conjugated hyperbilirubinemia. It is classified into intrahepatic and extrahepatic cholestasis. Intrahepatic cholestasis indicates hepatocellular dysfunction or the presence of an obstructive lesion in intrahepatic bile ducts distal to biliary canalicular sy...

متن کاملCan genetic testing guide the therapy of cholestatic pruritus? A case of benign recurrent intrahepatic cholestasis type 2 with severe nasobiliary drainage‐refractory itch
Benign recurrent intrahepatic cholestasis (BRIC) is a peculiar familial disease caused by mutations of the genes encoding hepatocanalicular flippase for phosphatidylserine (ATP8B1; BRIC type 1) or the bile salt export pump (ABCB11; BRIC type 2). Here, we report on a patient with nasobiliary drainage-refractory BRIC type 2 who improved under plasma separation and anion absorption therapy. We als...
