Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
I am Dr.R.K and I am pleased to assist you.
You really do not need to take Udiliv for cirrhosis. You can stop taking it.
The things to be done are -
1. Quit drinking if you have this habit.
2. Tests to know the cause for cirrhosis that includes tests for Hep b, Hep C, autoimmune and metabolic causes.
3. An upper GI endoscopy to screen for varices.
I hope that answers your query.
Regards.
