Hepatic reactions include: acute liver failure, jaundice, autoimmune hepatitis, and cholestasis. In a December 2004 Dear Doctor Letter, Centocor advised healthcare professionals that in postmarketing experience worldwide, severe hapatic reactions including acute liver failure, jaundice/cholestatis, and hepatitis, including autoimmune hepatitis have been reported in patients receiving Remicade, and a new warning was added to the label.
