Research Notes on Cirrhosis Treatment
Treatment for cirrhosis depends on the cause. The goal of treatment is to prevent further liver damage, treat symptoms and trying to avoid complications. Treatment will likely involve various medications, special diet and avoidance of certain things such as alcohol.1
Fast Facts:
- One of the most common problems for those with cirrhosis is fluid buildup in the abdomen.1
- If liver damage is severe, a liver transplant may be necessary.1
- Cirrhosis cannot be cured and the damage is non-reverseable.1
