An Evaluation of Postmarketing Reports of Serious Idiosyncratic Liver Injury Associated with Ulipristal Acetate for the Treatment of Uterine Fibroids

ConclusionsWe identified postmarketing cases of serious acute drug-induced liver injury causally associated with ulipristal used to treat uterine fibroids, some with outcomes of liver transplant and/or death. The presence of common structural features identified with certain selective progesterone receptor modulators in the treatment of chronic conditions may indicate a liability for idiosyncratic drug-induced liver injury.
