While generally well tolerated, data regarding its hepatotoxic potential are scarce. We report a case of idiosyncratic drug\u2010induced liver injury in a 61\u2010year\u2010old woman following 2 months of fexuprazan therapy. She presented with fatigue and elevated liver enzymes, and liver biopsy demonstrated single\u2010cell necrosis, interface hepatitis and eosinophilic infiltration\u2014features consistent with drug\u2010induced liver injury. Her liver function normalized after drug discontinuation. However, approximately 20\u2009months later, the patient experienced a recurrence of liver injury after unintentionally being prescribed fexuprazan again. The second episode showed similar biochemical and histological features, fulfilling Hy's law criteria and increasing the RUCAM score from\n                    <jats:italic>probable<\/jats:italic>\n                    to\n                    <jats:italic>highly probable<\/jats:italic>\n                    . Pharmacokinetic analysis during the first episode revealed a prolonged elimination half\u2010life, suggestive of impaired metabolism during active hepatic injury. Pharmacogenetic testing revealed a cytochrome P450 enzyme 2C19 poor metabolizer genotype, although its clinical relevance was limited in this case. This report highlights a rare but reproducible adverse drug reaction to fexuprazan and emphasizes the importance of thorough drug history and postmarketing surveillance. To our knowledge, this is the first report of recurrent fexuprazan\u2010induced liver injury confirmed by unintentional re\u2010exposure.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/bcp.70245","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,8,20]],"date-time":"2025-08-20T12:16:58Z","timestamp":1755692218000},"page":"3266-3271","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Recurrent fexuprazan\u2010induced liver injury following unintentional re\u2010exposure"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"91","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8872-3796","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sook Jin","family":"Seong","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Clinical Pharmacology School of Medicine, Kyungpook National University, Kyungpook National University Hospital  Daegu Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0002-8816-4124","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"O Seong","family":"Kweon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine School of Medicine, Kyungpook National University, Kyungpook National University Hospital  Daegu Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2166-7579","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Young\u2010Ran","family":"Yoon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Clinical Pharmacology School of Medicine, Kyungpook National University, Kyungpook National University Hospital  Daegu Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4699-8502","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yu Kyung","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Laboratory Medicine School of Medicine, Kyungpook National University, Kyungpook National University Hospital  Daegu Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3634-9127","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yoo Na","family":"Kang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Forensic Medicine School of Medicine, Kyungpook National University  Daegu Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9148-9670","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Se Young","family":"Jang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine School of Medicine, Kyungpook National University, Kyungpook National University Hospital  Daegu Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,8,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_8_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1476\u20105381.1982.tb09232.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0022-3565(25)21375-1"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053\/bega.2001.0184"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365\u20102036.1995.tb00778.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/apt.16295"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00228\u2010023\u201003521\u20104"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fphar.2024.1477633"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fmed.2022.1076356"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11894\u2010024\u201000939\u20103"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/apt.16131"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/ph16081141"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_13_1","unstructured":"Pharmacogene Variation Consortium.PharmVar database.
