Eculizumab-associated hepatotoxicity is a previously unreported adverse event in NMOSD patients. Therefore, patients should be monitored for liver function tests during eculizumab treatment, and care should be taken for hepatotoxicity. If hepatotoxicity is detected while under eculizumab treatment, patients should be investigated for other drug use, complementary food supplementation, or possible autoimmune hepatitis, and other potential causes should be excluded.
