  • Summary

  • An overview of drug induced interstitial lung disease / pulmonary fibrosis. This video explains how the connection between a certain medication and pulmonary fibrosis is made. You can also watch the video on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/fVRf8Y-hwS4

    Several drugs can induce lung reactions and fibrosis, but unless we have a clear timeline it can be very hard to confidently say it was a specific drug that caused the fibrosis.

    Remember there may be other causes for pulmonary fibrosis that may need to be investigated.

    Look up potential for lung toxicity of different medications here: https://www.pneumotox.com/drug/index/

    (a star sign with a higher number in it suggests there is a higher potential of lung toxicity - i.e. number 4 or 5)
