Abstract
Recent studies have shown that liver enzyme abnormalities were not only seen with typical antipsychotics (APs) but also with atypical antipsychotics (AAPs). During the last 20 years, the hepatotoxicity of various antipsychotics received much attention. However, systematic evaluations of hepatotoxicity associated with APs are limited. All drug related hepatic disorders cases were retrieved from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database using standardized MedDRA queries (SMQ) from the first quarter of 2017 to the first quarter of 2022. Patient characteristics and prognosis were assessed. In this study, a case/non-case approach was used to calculate reporting odds ratio (RORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). We calculated the drug-induced liver injury (DILI) RORs for each AAPs. A total of 408 DILI cases were attributed to AAPs during the study period. 18.6% of these were designated as serious adverse event (SAE), which include death (19.74%), hospitalization (68.42%), disability (2.63%), and life-threatening (9.21%) outcomes. The RORs values in descending order were: quetiapine (ROR = 0.782), clozapine (ROR = 0.665), aripiprazole (ROR = 0.507), amisulpride (ROR = 0.308), paliperidone (ROR = 0.212), risperidone (ROR = 0.198), ziprasidone (0.131). The result found in our study was that all AAPs didn't have a significant correlation with increased hepatotoxicity. Future analysis of the FAERS database in conjunction with other data sources will be essential for continuous monitoring of DILI.
