Guest guest Posted January 2, 2007 Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 I was diagnosed 3 weeks ago with autoimmune hepatitis. they believe it was drug induced by taking the antibiotic augmentin for sinusitis. I also have hypothyroidism and was told augmentin is contraindicated in people with thyroid problems. My liver was having acute symptoms and a biopsy confirmed the diagnosis. I am on prednisone 40 mg daily and having lots of sleeping issues. Has anyone else gotten hepatitis this way? I am scared of the side effects of the prednisone - any advice on treatment?
