The incidence rate of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis is gradually increasing year by year,which calls for an urgent need for effective therapeutic drugs. In recent years,various drugs have been developed,including anti-oxidative stress drugs,insulin sensitizers,PPAR agonists,thyroid receptor agonists,farnesoid X receptor agonists,ASK1 inhibitors,and pan-caspase inhibitors. This article reviews the clinical studies on the therapeutic drugs for nonalcoholic steatohepatitis and summarizes the efficacy and safety of each drug,in order to provide a reference for clinical practice.
