Brief Answer:
Aricept can be used with precautions.

Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for using HCM.

I have read your question and understand your concerns.

You mean Aricept right?

In this case, Aricept is not contraindicated in patients with liver conditions, but can be used with precautions.

If new symptoms appear after Aricept use, evaluation by your Doctor and liver function tests are necessary.

Hope you found the answer helpful.
