Doctor's Feedback
One of my patients, 38 years, was
rejected for Visa as his blood test
showed evidence of hepatitis B
infection (HBsAg positive).
I prescribed Liv.52 HB, 2 capsules
BID for 6 months, with regular
follow up. There was improvement
in liver function test parameters and
deterioration in HBsAg levels. This
patient is now in Gulf.
Dr M Vijay Mohan Reddy,
Andhra Pradesh
I have treated 4 patients of hepatitis
B with Liv.52 HB. Three out of the
4 patients had undetectable HBsAg
after 6 months of treatment. HBV
DNA levels became undetectable
within 5 to 6 months. Similar results
were obtained for HBeAg positive
patients. There was marked alleviation
of clinical symptoms like abdominal
pain and poor appetite. ALT was also
within normal limits.
Liv.52 HB is very promising and the
results are pretty much encouraging.
Dr Sunil Dadhich,
Rajasthan
HBsAg-positive patients show fast
recovery with Liv.52 HB. The results
are very encouraging. A male patient,
aged 18 years, recovered well with
Liv.52 HB.
Dr Himanshu Patwari,
Gujarat
Liv.52 HB is clinically successful in
reducing the viral load and converting
HBsAg-positive patients to HBsAg-
negative.
Dr SK Musaddi,
Uttar Pradesh
Liv.52 HB works well in hepatitis B.
It reduces symptoms like nausea and
vomiting, improves appetite, and
resolves the disease process rapidly.
Some non-hepatitis B cases are also
benefitted. However, further studies
are needed in this regard.
Dr GS Sandhu,
Madhya Pradesh
In comparison with IFN-
α
, Liv.52 HB
is very economical and well tolerated.
Liv.52 HB improves appetite,
normalizes hepatic enzyme levels and
serum bilirubin levels. It is helpful in
acute infective hepatitis and HBsAg-
positive cases.
Syed Azeem Aijaz,
Uttar Pradesh
Liv.52 HB shows good results in
hepatitis B, cirrhosis, HIV, and drug-
induced hepatitis. I got good results
with Liv.52 HB as a supportive agent
in the treatment for colitis. Liv.52 HB
has also shown excellent results in
cases with anti-tuberculosis treatment-
induced hepatitis.
Dr Anil P Mirajkar,
Maharashtra
Liv.52 HB has a positive effect on
the overall signs and symptoms of
hepatitis B patients within a short span
of time, without any adverse effects.
Above all, Liv.52 HB is affordable to
patients as compared with IFNs and
other medicines.
Although Liv.52 HB is indicated
for hepatitis B, I prescribed Liv.52
HB to patients with hepatitis C and
got good results, with a decrease in
viral load, serum SGOT and SGPT,
serum bilirubin, and improvement in
ultrasonography report.
Dr Ritamadhuri Thounaojam,
Manipur
In few patients, hepatitis B became
non-reactive with the use of Liv.52
HB. Liv.52 HB also showed a good
response in hepatitis A.
A patient aged 28 years was HBsAg-
positive. I prescribed Liv.52 HB, 1
capsule BID for 1 month. After 1
month, the tests were still positive.
I continued Liv.52 HB for another
month. The tests were again positive.
On continuous use of Liv.52 HB for
few more months, hepatitis B became
non-reactive, as confirmed by the
results.
Dr KK Sanjeev,
Kerala
Liv.52 HB is effective in the
management of hepatitis B. A double-
blind trial demonstrated that 24 weeks
of treatment with Liv.52 HB showed
very good response in viral hepatitis.
Liv.52 HB has shown very good
response in all my patients with viral
hepatitis.
Prof Dr HG Biradar,
Goa
A patient showed improvement
in clinical and biochemical HBV
markers after Liv.52 HB therapy.
Two patients of hepatitis B showed
significantly reduced levels of ALT,
HBsAg, HBeAg, and HBV after 5
months of Liv.52 HB treatment.
