Abstract

The gastrointestinal tract is a common target for adverse drug reactions. The resultant changes are often nonspecific (e.g., mucosal ulceration, intestinal infarction, motility disturbance) and in many cases no radiographically detectable lesion may occur. A comprehensive review of the reported drug-induced disorders of the digestive organs is herein presented and their radiographic manifestations are described.
