Autoimmune hepatitis; Refractory; Remission; Treatment; Non-compliance |
| Core Tip |
Treatment of autoimmune hepatitis seeks to induce and maintain remission, prevent progression, and potentially reverse fibrosis. In the 10%-20% of children unresponsive to steroids and azathioprine, adherence to medication and diagnosis should be reassessed and mimicking diseases excluded. Mycophenolate mofetil is the preferred second-line agent. Further therapy should be individualized, with adjustments made only after 6-12 months. |
