I'm a smoker and I also drink occasionally. I've been doing this for quite some time, and I'm concerned about keeping my liver healthy. I've heard about Liv 52 and was wondering if taking it once daily could help maintain my liver health. Is that something you would recommend, or is there something else I should consider?

Liv 52 can be beneficial for maintaining a healthy liver, especially if you are a smoker and occasional drinker. The recommended dosage for Liv 52 is usually 1-2 tablets twice daily. It contains natural ingredients that can help protect the liver and improve its function. However, it is important to also quit smoking and limit alcohol consumption to further support your liver health.

I'm a bit concerned about understanding the difference between the HBsAg test done by the ELISA method and the ELFA method. My wife is HBsAg positive and she's been getting tested every 12 weeks. Her ELFA test results keep changing. If the percentage in the results is decreasing, does that mean she's getting better? Any insights on this would be really helpful.

Ideally there is no recovery from Hbsag if there is decrease in values that say viral load is decreasing but the disease is still there.

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
