Hello,

Your question is on whether to stay on your multivitamin Ciplaton or go back to your centrum multivitamin in light of the fact you have kidney injury. I would advise you to stay on your centrum or to switch to Nephrocaps, which is a multivitamin for kidney patients. I do not like the phosphorus in the Ciplaton or the fact you are not getting the synergy of nutrients present in a regular multivitamin. Milk thistle is good for cleansing the liver and for keeping it healthy but it is no substitute for alcohol abstinence.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Kathy Shattler, Dietitian & Nutritionist
