Thank for posting on HCM!
No proof or scientific evidence that says that drinking beer elephantiasis treatment accordingly. Follow me you drink beer cause you urinate more to make your swelling down. So cause of elephantiasis hasn't been removed. therefore, you need to continue to use tablet for prophylaxis and treatment compliance elephantiasis.
Thank you!
