Use initial labs to define hepatocellular DILI by R value when bilirubin >2.5. That’s the best way to find a Hy’s Law case. But beware! Not all drugs obey the law!

A practical guide for the use of resmetirom from @sidbarritt4 @UNCLiverCenter @UNCGastro No liver biopsy required!
How to resmetirom: 1. Use NIT to assess disease 2. Lifestyle intervention and risk factor control 3. Resmetirom for “at risk” MASH 4. Reassess with NIT for success or failure @JonathanStineMD @JasmohanBajaj @MLongMD @AmCollegeGastro @AmJGastro
