thanks for choosing health care magic.During jaundice the liver which is an important organ of the body is affected and most of things in body that are taken are metabolized by liver so when it is affected the metabolism of it gets affected and the effect of a substance is increased sometimes to dangerous level and you can complications.So avoid it and be safe.Take medicines as prescribed by your doctor and take proper rest.

Dear Abrahamnaresh
Smoking and Drinking alcohol itself is injurious to health but incase of jaundice its very dangarous for you. Jaundice is not disease just the symptoms. The liver is weak in this condition. so any chemical effect are not advices. The natural herbal hepatoprotectives are prescribed. Liver is the most important largest organ performing the maximum function in our body so be consious for its protection
you may taking drugs from doctor better to consult ayurvedic physicians for complete treatment
Get well soon
Thanks
