What is LC-Liv Infusion?
LC-Liv Infusion is a medication consisting of two amino acids, commonly used to prevent abnormal brain function called hepatic encephalopathy in patients with liver disease. It works by detoxifying the ammonia from the blood.
How does LC-Liv Infusion treat hepatic encephalopathy (HE)?
Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is a brain disorder that occurs in individuals with liver failure due to bacterial growth in the intestine. The excessive build-up of ammonia due to this condition leads to brain dysfunction, known as HE. LC-Liv Infusion works by detoxifying the ammonia from the blood. This reduces the amount of free ammonia present in the body and thereby helps decrease the abnormal brain function caused by liver failure.
How is LC-Liv Infusion administered?
LC-Liv Infusion is typically given as a daily injection into a vein. The dosage will be determined by your healthcare provider based on your individual health condition and the severity of your liver disease.
