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.
