Can Hepatic-derived Diabetes Be Reversed?

Hepatogenic diabetes

is a type of diabetes secondary to chronic liver damage. It is mainly caused by abnormal glucose metabolism due to decreased liver function. Even if such patients are treated with liver-protecting drugs such as glycyrrhizin, silymarin, and adenosylmethionine, they can only prevent further decline in liver function. However, the damaged liver tissue cannot be completely repaired, so hepatogenic diabetes generally cannot be reversed.

Although hepatogenic diabetes cannot be reversed, active treatment can improve the condition to a certain extent and improve the quality of life.
