    The study analyzed FAERS and JADER databases to identify medications associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

  • 2

    A total of 52,395 reports of drug-associated IBD were identified in FAERS, with a higher proportion of reports from females aged 18–64 years.

  • 3

    Seventeen drugs met all algorithmic criteria and were classified as positive signals, with anti-TNF-α inhibitors being the most frequently reported.

  • 4

    External validation using JADER confirmed consistent signals for certain anti-TNF-α inhibitors and other drug classes linked to IBD.

  • 5

    The median onset of IBD occurred within one year for most drug-associated cases, indicating an early failure-type onset pattern.
