Thanks for the response.
I just forgot to mention that he is a BP patient and taking a tablet daily for it.
Also, is it safe to take Fenolip 145 while taking alchohol? As mentioned earlier he drinks alcohol moderately which we have told him to stop.
Also, I hope you have seen the findings on the liver and any comments on this please?
