Treatment of Drug-Induced Hepatitis
There is no specific treatment for drug-induced hepatitis other than discontinuing the medication that is causing the problem. People with acute hepatitis should avoid physical exertion, alcohol, paracetamol and any other hepatotoxic substances. Unfortunately, other than the use of N-acetylcysteine for paracetamol hepatotoxicity, there are no specific antidotes for drug-induced liver disease. Supportive care for acute liver failure and even liver transplantation may be required.

Key points about drug-induced hepatitis
Drug-induced hepatitis is a redness and swelling (inflammation) of the liver.
It is a rare condition caused by harmful (toxic) amounts of certain medicines, vitamins, herbal remedies, or food supplements.
In most cases, you may be taking a medicine for several months before it reaches a toxic level and affects your liver. 
You may also get the condition if you take too much of some medicines, such as acetaminophen. This can happen quickly.
You must stop taking the medicine that is causing the disease.
