Part 3 Environmental hepatotoxicity: syndromes of environmental hepatotoxicity occupational toxicity hepatotoxicity in the household the hepatotoxic potential of a polluted environment. Part 4 Iatrogenic hepatic injury: drug-induced liver disease anaesthetic agents psychotropic and anticonvulsant agents drugs used to treat rheumatic and musculospastic disease hormonal derivatives and related drugs hepatic injury from the treatment of infectious and parasitic diseases drugs used in cardiovascular disease hepatotoxic effects of oncotherapeutic and immunosuppressive agents miscellaneous drugs and diagnostic chemicals afterthoughts on hepatotoxicity appendices.
