Patient's question:
How to treat alcoholic liver disease? I don't know why I got alcoholic liver disease, as I don't drink much beer regularly, just occasionally. Yet, I ended up with alcoholic liver disease. Is there any method to treat alcoholic liver disease? How is the best way to treat it?Doctor's answer:
The treatment of alcoholic liver disease must first involve abstinence from alcohol. Active and successful abstinence is the most effective measure in the comprehensive prevention and treatment of alcoholic liver disease. The treatment of alcoholic liver disease should be determined based on clinical diagnostic symptoms to decide additional pharmacological interventions. In early or mild alcoholic liver disease, in addition to abstinence, many liver-protecting drugs and cross-linked vitamins can be used. Polyene phosphatidylcholine drugs can be taken to reduce liver damage caused by alcohol through their antioxidant effects. Alternatively, drugs like Galvital, which contain traditional Chinese medicine ingredients such as curcumin, can be used to repair liver cells and stabilize liver function, showing good effects in liver protection, blocking, or reversing liver fibrosis treatment.
