Brief Answer:
Weight reduction to be done first

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
I am Dr.R.K and I am pleased to assist you.

Fatty liver is a harmless condition. Your liver function is within normal limits and it indicates your liver is not damaged due to fatty liver.

You are overweight. Your BMI is 26.5. This might be the reason for the fatty liver. To reverse fatty you need to reduce weight. Your BMI should be less than 25. You should reduce at least 5 kg.

As long as you are overweight the fatty liver may persist.
Continue taking Nusam for fatty liver.

You can repeat the tests after you reduce the weight.

I hope that answers your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr.R.K.

Hi Dr,

Thanks for your reply. I follow diet and exercise to reduce weight and fatty liver.

Currently having Irritable bowel - doctor prescribed Normaxin (1 week) and Pantocid tablet (1 week).Is this safe to use it for 1 week.

Nusam tablet i have not yet started, please suggest is Nusam really required or it is optional.

Brief Answer:
Nusam for faster recovery

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Yes you can take Normaxin and pantocid. They are safe only.

Nusam can improve recovery from fatty liver.

But even without it and with only weight reduction also there will be improvement.
