If they are supplements they are not medically proven.It is a contradiction in terms.
Only medication approved by the FDA has passed the necessary standards of proof.
I have cirrhosis and I would not take a thing without asking my dr. If I think I need a tylenol I have to discuss it with him. When he laid out a schedule for me to take a tylenol...I thought this is crazy! But it is serious. JMHO
Good Luck to you!
Then what are medically proved supplements for cirrhosis .Im havin entecavir for my hepb .
Here is a quote for you
'Reviews of the literature covering clinical studies of silymarin vary in their conclusions. A review using only studies with both double-blind and placebo protocols concluded that milk thistle and its derivatives "does not seem to significantly influence the course of patients with alcoholic and/or hepatitis B or C liver diseases'
Taking it probably won't do harm but it's no answer to your clinical condition.
You should use your doctor and medical science.
