Abstract
Acetaminophen (APAP) is one of the most common antipyretic and analgesic drugs. Despite various precautions patients use APAP in amounts exceeding acceptable daily doses. APAP overdosing contributes to APAP intoxication, which leads to acute liver injury or necessity of exigent liver transplantation. Biomarkers that can be helpful in early diagnosis of liver injury during APAP overdosing are studied worldwide. This review presents recent reports on new potential biomarkers and their prospective application in clinical practice.
