%X Cyproterone acetate (CPA), a hydroxyprogesterone derivative, is used to treat advanced prostate cancer and infrequently in women for acne, breast cancer and hirsutism. Transient mild elevation in levels of liver enzymes is reported in 10-30% of patients, and acute liver failure (ALF) is uncommon. Here, we discuss the first case of CPA-induced ALF from India and the available literature.
