“These results highlight that administration of therapeutic doses of GTE induces hepatotoxicity, and imply that in a situation of clinical paracetamol overdose, administration of GTE is likely to potentiate APAP-induced hepatotoxicity.”
“Dose dependent decreases in histopathology scores and serum transaminases were noted when GTE was administered prior to APAP ; whereas, the opposite occurred when GTE was administered after APAP.”
“Similarly, metabolites altered by APAP alone were less changed when GTE was given prior to APAP.”
“These studies demonstrate the complex interaction between GTE and APAP and the need to employ novel analytical strategies to understand the effects of dietary supplements on pharmaceutical compounds.”
