This is serious disease and quitting alcohol is the most important thing that should be done. Also, medications which are hematotoxic should be avoided.

Diet should be balanced and healthy and get regular exercise.

Limit high-carb foods such as bread, grits, rice, potatoes, and corn. And cut down on drinks with lots of sugar like sports drinks and juice. If there is viral hepatitis as udnelying cause then antiviral medications are required.
