Reviews

I used heptor pills, faced with problems of a neurological nature. Having experienced nervous stress, I was faced with the appearance of panic attacks. The result was the appointment of a tranquilizer by the attending physician. Despite the fact that I drank the drug for a relatively short time and in small doses, the negative effects on the liver could not be avoided - in fact, this is one of the characteristic features of all tranquilizers. Therefore, in conjunction with a dangerous drug, I drank a heptor prescribed by a doctor. He was prescribed specifically for the normal functioning of the liver. And it was thanks to Heptor that problems with this body passed me by. What I want to note - the effect of the drug is quite mild, even at the beginning of the intake there were no negative reactions. The only thing that is somewhat annoying is the cost. On the other hand, in comparison with analogs, it is quite affordable. So I recommend more positive qualities than negative ones.

I must say about the advantages and disadvantages. Efficiency can be attributed to the first without reservation, and to the second - the price, which is quite high. As for the use, I had to take the Heptor because of the rather long-passed hepatitis B. Complications have not disappeared, so it periodically “presses” - the level of bilirubin in the blood rises, pain in the liver appears, and appetite disappears completely. The attending physician prescribed Heptor as the most effective drug in this condition. The price was somewhat embarrassing, I bought what is called through force. Now I do not regret it, the pain in the liver disappeared for the course of treatment, I even stopped refusing myself even in small doses of alcohol on holidays, although earlier I immediately twisted the pain after such a feat.
Side effects also took place - mild heartburn appeared, which is perfectly removed by the drug from her. But here everything is individual, of course, plus you must strictly follow the instructions, taking pills between meals, not on an empty stomach. One thing is for sure - the therapeutic effect is available, so I’m satisfied with the drug.

Tightened in due time with cholestasis, did not pay much attention to signs, and when she was examined on the occasion, found out about liver problems. The doctor prescribed a heptor, of course, the price of the drug is decent. But I had to buy, experts know better. I drank a month after eating, waiting until two hours have passed, you can’t take it on a full stomach, everything is connected with acidity. This time reference is not very convenient. But this is all the disadvantages for me personally, otherwise the drug showed its best. After two weeks of administration, I forgot about the itching, which tormented me very much, the yellowness of the skin gradually disappeared, then the tests showed good dynamics, although bilirubin and white blood cells were still elevated - but not by the same way as at the beginning! After a two-week break, the course was repeated, only the dose was reduced by medical advice. Everything returned to normal, happy!
