Dear doctor
My mom has liver cirrhosis due to Hep B. Unfortunately, my native country (mongolia) we don't have antiviral medication to slow down the disease process as well as the sclerosis. How I can get medication without prescription ? I tried the canadian pharmacy but they need also canadian doctors prescription. Please help me

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
In liver cirrhosis, to reduce portal hypertension and to relieve edema, Diuretic and Beta blocker like medicines can be prescribed.
Anti-viral medicine is given only if active stage present with high liver enzymes, more viral DNA marker, and HBeAg positive.
This medication is given on prescription of the registered medical practitioner in most of the countries. Consult a nearby physician for examination and your further work up.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Parth Goswami
