Abstract
Ecstasy became a common used drug by young adults because of its stimulant and hallucinogenic properties. However, many side effects of this drug have been reported before. Hepatotoxicity is also one of the rare side effect of this drug, and may be fatal. Fulminant hepatic failure due to ingestion of ecstasy has been reported as case reports, and clinical presentations and prognosis are variable. In this article, we have presented a case with fulminant hepatic failure due to ingestion of ecstasy. The case was recovered spontaneously by supportive therapy and liver transplantation was not needed.
