Have Hematuria, Taking Thera Flu, Drinking Alcohol. Does It Cause Liver Damage?
i have hematuria for over two years now, i remember taking thera flu while i was drinking alcohol, i just read the fine prints on the label and it said that drinking alcohol while taking thera flu can cause liver damage, the doctors cant tell me whats the problem, i have done numerous test and they cant seem to figure out what it is, do you think it could be the combination of the thera flu and the alcohol

Hi and welcome to HCM. thanks for the query.
I dont think so. I think that liver damage is caused only by alcohol. this is the first reason to think of. thera flu is not proved to be harmful for liver in recommended dosage. hematuria is probably caused by something else. Most commonly kidney stone or uroinfection. I suggest to reduce alcohol intake and then check your liver enzymes to see is there improvement. Hematuria requires more detailed urologic work up.
Wish you good health. Regards
