          Abstract

          A isoniazida e a pirazinamida são drogas hepatotóxicas bem conhecidas. O aparecimento da lesão hepática, em relação ao início do tratamento, é precoce com a isoniazida e mais tardio e mais grave com a pirazinamida. O objetivo deste trabalho é relatar caso de um lactente de cinco meses de idade com tuberculose pulmonar e meníngea, que desenvolveu hepatite tóxica com insuficiência hepática, durante o uso de isoniazida, pirazinamida e rifampicina. As manifestações clínicas e as alterações laboratoriais foram detectadas no quinto dia de tratamento e a melhora foi rápida, estando praticamente recuperado no final da primeira semana, após suspensão da isoniazida. Embora tenha tido necessidade de suporte em unidade de terapia intensiva, teve evolução favorável, sem seqüelas.

          Translated abstract

          Isoniazid and pyrazinamide are both well-known hepatotoxic drugs. When isoniazid is used, the hepatic lesion appears before than when pyrazinamide is used. This paper intents to relate a case of a 5-month-old patient who had lungs' and meningeal tuberculosis and who developed toxic hepatitis accomplished by hepatic failure while he was being treated with isoniazid, pyrazinamide and rifampicin. The clinic manifestations and the laboratory alterations were detected in the fifth day of treatment and the recovery was fast; and almost complete by the end of the first week, in which the use of isoniazid had been suspended. Although it was necessary to take the patient to the intensive care unit, he had a good recovery, without sequels.
