Hi- i'm trying to get a general consensus here on how people feel about taking supplements (milk thistle, etc) after completing treatment.
I used to take milk thistle daily, but got into a drug study in Nov. that i had to stop taking it. I am (was?) a treatment-naive, Genotype 1, and am currently entering week 14 of a 24-week treatment using an investigational drug (polymerase inhibitor PSI 7977) in conjuntion w/SOC (pegasys and riba). I just found out last week that as of week 4 and ongoing, my viral load is undetectable.
so my treatment is going to be finishing up in the end of April, and i was thinking of getting back into the routine of taking milk thistle again, and also investigating taking sho saiko to, both as kind of 'maintenance supplements' to keep my liver healthy.
anyone have experience of completing treatment and taking supplements post-treatment? or any thoughts or opinions on this?
thanks in advance!
cheers,
-Chris
