Plasma 4β‐hydroxycholesterol (4β‐OHC) normalized for the levels of its parent cholesterol (4β‐OHC/C) is an endogenous biomarker for hepatic CYP3A4. This study evaluated CYP3A4 activity longitudinally in individuals while their obesity status was changing. 4β‐OHC/C was measured pre‐surgery (n = 54) and 2 years after Roux‐en‐Y gastric bypass (n = 30) and
