I'm really worried about my husband who's 34. His SGOT and SGPT levels are high, and he's been experiencing swelling in his legs and face. Could this be a sign of a liver problem or something else? I'm not sure what all of this could mean but I'm definitely concerned. Could you help us understand what's going on?

I'm thinking about starting Liv52, but I'm not quite sure when the best time of day is to take it. Also, are there any side effects I should be aware of? Just trying to make sure I'm doing everything right for my health.

Liv-52 should be taken twice a day, preferably after meals. It is recommended to take it for at least 6-8 weeks to see its full benefits. Liv-52 is generally safe for most people when taken as directed. However, some rare side effects may include upset stomach or allergic reactions. If you experience any unusual symptoms, please discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional.

I'm really concerned because I've been dealing with some serious liver issues after starting my TB treatment. It all began with a fever right from the first dose, and even though I stopped the medication 12 days ago, the fever hasn't gone away. I'm worried about hepatotoxicity and what this means for my treatment. Do I really need to stop the TB meds completely? And if my liver's already damaged, how do I go about healing it? Any advice would be really appreciated.

yes you should stop that particular drug. If you stop the drug ,your liver will automatically get cured
