A member asked:

Is there a medication to improve cirrhosis of the liver?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: There are no therapies proven to improve cirrhosis. There are many therapies available to improve and control symptoms. If you have infectious hepatitis, treatment for this may improve disease a bit.
