Hepatotoxicity due to paroxetine, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor, is very rare, and to the best of our knowledge, only five cases of liver injury in association with paroxetine have previously been reported in the medical literature. We describe the clinical, biochemical, and pathological findings in a patient with paroxetine hepatotoxicity, which was reversed after withdrawal of the drug. The present case and the others previously reported suggest that hepatotoxicity should be taken into account as a rare complication, sometimes severe, that may occur with paroxetine.
