Hi welcome to the health care magic

In acute hepatitis complete bilirubin recovery sometimes may take time up to 3 months...

Your bilirubin very high, hence take precautions not to take fatty foods much as liver needs rest in hepatitis from fat digestion...

Take fruit juices, Apple juice, coconut water more

Sugar cane juice beneficial

Avoid outside foods strictly for few weeks

Green leafy vegetables more

Udiliv tablet can be prescribed (300 mg dose) for your condition

Take care

Hope your concern solved

Follow your treating physician advise and regularly examined by him for atleast 2 to 3 months duration
