Hi thanks for asking question.

Noted she is having cirrhosis and taking rabeprazole, folic acid , lactulose and rifaximine....
Does her ammonia level high???
As last two drug is for hepatic encephalopathy case in which ammonia is high...

Anyhow just now you also complaining water accumulation.So for that take low salt and more protein diet.
Meanwhile diuretic can be taken like furosemide ..
For portal hypertension beta blocker can be started.
So consult doctor if still not relief.

Meanwhile take low fat diet.
Grined spinach leaves and carrot juice can be taken
..

Take care.
