Abstract

Turmeric has surged in popularity as one of the most widely used dietary supplements in the United States. Recognized for its anti- inflammatory and antioxidant properties, it has traditionally been regarded as safe. Recent literature and reports in LiverTox have documented over a dozen cases of acute liver injury associated with the use of turmeric supplements. However, potential drug interactions with turmeric have been described but not well-documented. Thus, we present a case of drug-induced liver injury (DILI) correlated with turmeric supplement use and the concurrent use of semaglutide.
