The causes of jaundice hepatitis include viral hepatitis, alcoholic hepatitis, drug-induced hepatitis, and biliary tract obstruction. 1. Viral hepatitis: for example, viral hepatitis B or C. When hepatitis develops to the late stage, abnormal bilirubin metabolism may occur, which may lead to jaundice. 2. Alcoholic hepatitis: heavy drinking will cause liver function damage, and even lead to alcoholic cirrhosis, at this time, bilirubin metabolism will be abnormal, which will lead to jaundice. 3. Drug hepatitis: some drugs such as anti-tuberculosis drug rifampicin can cause liver function damage, which may also lead to jaundice. 4. Bile duct obstruction: bile duct obstruction caused by bile duct stones or pancreatic head cancer can lead to jaundice hepatitis. Jaundice hepatitis must be treated in time.
