Abstract

Objectives: Concerns about drug-induced liver injury (DILI) may deter physicians from prescribing medications for alcohol use disorder (MAUD). We aim to explore DILI due to MAUD in Drug-Induced Liver Injury Network (DILIN) prospective study. Methods: High-confidence DILI cases (ie, definite, highly likely, or probable) due to MAUD in DILIN prospective study (2004–2024) were included. Demographic, clinical, laboratory data, and 6-month outcomes were analyzed. HLA allele frequency (AF) of disulfiram cases was compared to matched controls with DILI due to non-MAUD (DILI controls). Results: Among 1975 high-confidence cases, 13 were attributed to MAUD (11 disulfiram; 1 naltrexone and 1 baclofen; and none from acamprosate). Median age was 45 years, with 77% female and 85% White. All had hepatocellular injury. In disulfiram group, the median time for DILI occurrence was 34 days. Eight patients developed jaundice, with 3 fatal or near-fatal cases (2 liver transplantation and 1 liver-related death). Five (71%) patients with severe or fatal disulfiram DILI had underlying liver disease. AF for HLA-C*01:02 (OR, 6.29; P = 0.02) and DRB1*09:01 (OR, 10.16; P = 0.02) were significantly higher in disulfiram cases than in DILI controls. DILI from baclofen and naltrexone was mild and self-limited with no chronic DILI. Conclusions: Disulfiram is the leading cause of DILI among MAUD and is most common in women. Disulfiram can cause severe DILI and is associated with HLA-C*01:02 and DRB1*09:01. Baclofen and naltrexone can cause mild to moderate self-limited DILI. There were no cases of acamprosate. These findings suggest DILI due to MAUD are less frequent.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
