How to treat alcohol cirrhosis

Alcoholic cirrhosis refers to alcoholic liver cirrhosis. Patients can take general treatment, drug therapy and surgical treatment.

1. General treatment

patients need to quit drinking in time. Abstinence from drinking is the main measure for the treatment of this disease. Timely abstinence from drinking helps improve the prognosis and improve the survival rate of patients. Patients with chronic alcoholism often suffer from secondary malnutrition, so they need to be given certain support in diet and appropriately increase foods with high protein and vitamins.

2. Drug therapy

for patients with liver injury and elevated transaminases requires liver protection treatment. Patients can use polyene phosphatidylcholine, acetylcysteine, silymarin and other drugs under the guidance of doctors, which can increase the antioxidant capacity of liver cells and accelerate the repair of liver cells.

3. Surgical treatment

If the patient has stopped drinking and taken active treatment but has no effect, liver function has been exhausted, and liver transplantation is recommended under the premise that the physical conditions are consistent with surgery.
