Someone recommended Himalaya Liv.52 DS to me; should I take it, and what is it used for?
Dr. S Aneela

Liv.52 DS is an Ayurvedic liver-support supplement commonly used to support liver health in conditions such as fatty liver, mild elevation of liver enzymes (SGOT/SGPT), alcohol-related liver stress, and poor appetite. It may help improve liver function when combined with lifestyle changes like avoiding alcohol, healthy diet, weight control, and regular exercise. However, it is not a cure for serious liver disease, and it should not be taken without medical advice if you have significantly abnormal liver tests, hepatitis, jaundice, or other liver conditions. Please consult a doctor to identify the exact cause of your elevated liver enzymes before starting any regular medication.
I have been taking Liv.52 DS for the past 15 days; can you please check if my test report is normal and advise if I should continue this medication?

In general, if you are tolerating the LIV.52 DS well and your doctor prescribed it for fatty liver or liver support, it is usually taken for a few weeks to months along with diet control, exercise, and avoiding alcohol. However, you should consult your doctor before continuing it long term.
