Abstract: Danazol, a C17 alkylated anabolic steroid, has been tried as a hormonomodulator in the management of systemic lupus erythematosus. We report the case of a patient receiving 400 mg of danazol per day who developed mild pancreatitis associated with hepatitis, both induced by danazol. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
