id="Fenoprofen.Introduction"><h3>Introduction</h3><p>Fenoprofen is a nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug (NSAID) used in the treatment of acute pain and chronic arthritis. Fenoprofen has been linked to a low rate of serum enzyme elevations during therapy and to rare instances of clinically apparent acute liver injury.</p></div><div id="Fenoprofen.Background"><h3>Background</h3><p>Fenoprofen (fen" oh proe' fen) belongs to the propionic derivative class of NSAIDs similar to naproxen, ketoprofen, flurbiprofen and ibuprofen. Like other NSAIDs, fenoprofen is a cyclo-oxygenase (Cox-1 and -2) inhibitor that blocks the formation of prostaglandins that are important in pain and inflammatory pathways. Fenoprofen has analgesic as well as antipyretic and antiinflammatory activities. Fenoprofen was approved in the United States in 1976 and is still in clinical use. Current indications include chronic joint pain due to osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, as well as mild-to-moderate acute pain. The recommended dose in adults with pain is 200 mg every 4 to 6 hours. Higher doses are used for chronic arthritis, in the range of 400 to 600 mg 3 or 4 times per day, with a maximum dose of 3,200 mg daily. Fenoprofen is available by prescription only in the form of capsules or tablets of 200, 300, 400 and 600 mg in both generic and trade formulations (Nalfon). As with other NSAIDs, fenoprofen is generally well tolerated, but side effects can include headache, dizziness, somnolence, gastrointestinal upset, nausea, abdominal discomfort, diarrhea, peripheral edema and hypersensitivity reactions.</p></div><div id="Fenoprofen.Hepatotoxicity"><h3>Hepatotoxicity</h3><p>Prospective studies show that up to 15% of patients taking fenoprofen experience at least transient serum aminotransferase elevations. These elevations are generally transient, mild and asymptomatic, and may resolve even with drug continuation. Marked aminotransferase elevations (&#x0003e;3 fold elevated) occur in &#x0003c;1% of patients. Clinically apparent liver injury with jaundice from fenoprofen is very rare and only individual case reports have been published. The latency to onset has been rapid, often within a few days of starting. The pattern of enzyme elevations has ranged from cholestatic to hepatocellular. Immunoallergic features are present in some cases (low grade fever, rash), but are generally not prominent, and autoantibody formation is rare. Most cases resolve promptly on stopping therapy. Fenoprofen is not mentioned in large case series on drug induced liver injury or acute liver failure.</p><p>Likelihood score: D (possible rare cause of clinically apparent liver injury).</p></div><div id="Fenoprofen.Mechanism_of_Injury"><h3>Mechanism of Injury</h3><p>The mechanism of fenoprofen hepatotoxicity is not known, but likely to be due to an idiosyncratic reaction to an intermediate of its metabolism. Fenoprofen is extensively metabolized by the liver.</p></div><div id="Fenoprofen.Outcome_and_Management"><h3>Outcome and Management</h3><p>Severity ranges from asymptomatic elevations in serum aminotransferase levels to symptomatic hepatitis with or without jaundice. There are no convincing cases of fulminant hepatic failure, chronic hepatitis or vanishing bile duct syndrome attributable to fenoproten use in the published literature. Patients with fenoprofen induced liver injury should avoid other propionic acid derivatives such as flurbiprofen, ibuprofen, ketoprofen and naproxen.</p><p>Drug Class: <a href="/books/n/livertox/NonsteroidalAntiinfl/?report=reader">Nonsteroidal Antiinflammatory Drugs</a></p></div></div><div id="Fenoprofen.PRODUCT_INFORMATION"><h2 id="_Fenoprofen_PRODUCT_INFORMATION_">PRODUCT INFORMATION</h2><div id="Fenoprofen.BPI" class="box boxed-text-box whole_rhythm hide-overflow"><p>
