The liver, kidneys, and heart are often the primary targets of drug-induced tissue damage. Hepatotoxicity refers to liver damage caused by drugs, which can lead to conditions like hepatitis or cirrhosis. Nephrotoxicity affects the kidneys and can result in acute or chronic renal failure. Cardiotoxicity involves damage to the heart muscle and can lead to conditions such as arrhythmias or heart failure. Other organs, such as the lungs, skin, and nervous system, can also be affected depending on the drug and its mechanism of action.
