Hi,

Livolin forte is a combination of phospholipids and vitamins. It has been said to have hepatoprotective property. But it is a general tonic and may have some protective properties against liver disorders, but no specific comparative study is available to show its specific role in liver disease. But some of the reviews, definitely describe its beneficial effects in liver conditions including Hepatitis B.

Hepatitis B, is usually a self limiting disease in almost most of the cases, in whom, the infection subsides within 6 months without any specific treatment. It is more so in adults. However, chronic cases, having infection for more than 6 months, may not have a very serious course and fulminant signs.

However, in such cases, there is always chances of having liver failure, liver carcinoma Or liver cirrhosis leading to permanent scarring and severe damage to liver. Normally, the treatment of chronic cases should be with specific antiviral drugs for proper treatment & to avoid these complications.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Satnarain Bansal, General & Family Physician
