Hello XXXXXXX
Any patient having high grade fever is at high risk.In pregnancy that risk increases.
Your wife's liver enzymes are raised.The cause for the deranged liver enzymes and fever needs to be found out.Get urea,creatinine, hepatitis A,B,C,E tested.
The liver dysfunction is causing the itching. Continue the UDILIV 300MG twice a day.
But the cause of the fever is important. also get a urine culture,total count,platelets.
The Monocef injection can be given.It will help controlling the infection.
