What Are the Treatment Options for Toxicology-Induced Jaundice?
Treatment of jaundice in the context of toxicology focuses on removing the toxic agent and supporting liver function. This may include:
Activated charcoal: Administered to prevent absorption of certain ingested toxins. N-acetylcysteine: Used as an antidote for acetaminophen poisoning. Supportive care: Includes hydration, nutritional support, and monitoring of liver function. Liver transplant: Considered in cases of irreversible liver damage.
