What Is The Treatment For Fatty Liver?

Hello, I have mild diffused fatty infiltration of liver and my total bilirubin count is 2.9 mg/dl (conjugated 1.6 and unconjugated 1.3) with SGPT 160 IU/L and SGOT 132 IU/L. I also have moderate splenomegaly. My stomach is always bloated and often suffer from stomach upset. I weigh 45kg. My doctor suggested silybon 140 mg tablet BDAC, Roles 20 mg befor breakfast and cobadex czs one tablet daily. Can these be safely taken.

Hello

Fatty liver is a reversible condition.It is due to deposition of fat within the liver cells.It may be due to many reasons like obesity,sedentary life style,altered lipid profile,hepatitis etc.
Increased SGPT may indicate liver injury.It may be due to many reasons like hepatitis,alcohol intake,altered lipid profile, medicines,auto immune causes etc.
It may be related to hepatitis in your case as bilirubin level is also increased.
SGOT is non specific and it increases in many conditions.
Moderate splenomegaly may be due to many reasons,it need evaluation.

You have been prescribed right medicines.You can take it safely.
I also suggest tablet ursodeoxycholic acid 300 mg twice daily for three months to my patients.It helps in regeneration of liver cells.

Get well soon.
Take Care
