Suffering Acute Rejection Of Liver Transplant. On UV Medrol. Bilirubin Levels Dropped. Suggestions?
Hello My mother is suffereing from Acute rejection after a liver transplant (happened 4 months back) and has already been through one course of UV Medrol 500 mg for 5 days, 200 for 2 and tapered off to 20 right now. During the Course her biluribun levels dropped, however now theyre back to 13. 37 again. Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
Hi and welcome to Healthcare magic.Thank you for the query. the inly cure is to modulate immunosupresant dosage and hope for the best. When bilirubin raises,dosage should be higher and reverse. There is no other treatment of liver rejection. Wish you good health. Regards
