Abstract
This case is an instance of chlorpromazine hepatitis that was promptly benefited by cortisone therapy. If this proves to be the general finding, then short-term steroid therapy with its low risk of side-effects would be indicated in most cases. The definite eosinophilia is of interest in connection with the possible role of sensitivity in the etiology of the condition.Keywords
