Fenbufen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug in the propionic acid derivatives class.[1]

It was introduced by American Cyanamid under the trade name Lederfen in the 1980s. Due to liver toxicity, it was withdrawn from markets in the developed world in 2010.[2][3]: 370, 383–384 

As of 2015 it was available in Taiwan and Thailand under several brand names.[4]
