Excerpt

Resmetirom is a thyroid hormone receptor beta (THR-β) agonist used in conjunction with diet and exercise in the therapy of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) with moderate-to-severe fibrosis. Resmetirom therapy is associated with mild and transient serum aminotransferase elevations during the first month of therapy and with rare instances of acute liver injury which can be severe, but which reverses on drug discontinuation.
