General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello
As you mentioned that he is taking ( cousin ) ursodeoxycholic acid 300 mg + evion ( Vitamin E ) .
Initially his bilirubib level was 30 mg/dl , now it is 81 mg .
He is responding very well to this treatment , so need not to worry.
Continue the treatment till bilirubin level comes down below 1 mg / dl.
Now question , how many days he will have to take treatment . Once level start coming down it takes 5-7 days .
Since responding to treatment so its a good thing.
Also give him rich carbohydrate diet and fat free food for few days , as I advise this treatment to my patients.
Good luck.
