 Benign Recurrent Intrahepatic Cholestasis  (BRIC) is a disease characterized by recurrent episodes of pruritus and jaundice, which are self limiting. It presents usually  in the second decade of life. First presentation of BRIC in adulthood is rare. Here we present a case of 36 year old male with recurrent episodes of pruritus and jaundice. His liver function test showed elevated direct bilirubin and a normal gamma glutamyl transferase level, Magnetic resonance cholangiogram (MRC) showed normal bile ducts, viral markers and autoimmune markers were negative. Liver biopsy was suggestive of chronic intrahepatic cholestasis. He was treated with ursodeoxycholic  acid and supportive measures. He showed rapid improvement in his symptoms and had no further attacks as on date.
