A member asked:
I take famotidine everyday for gerd. i read studies that show over time it can hurt the liver. is this safe to take with milk thistle? thanks.

Not good long term: best if you limit sugars, exercise and try apple cider vinegar 1 tbsp twice daily (mixed with 8 oz water) 1 hr before meals. Ok to use milk thistle but I would take a week off every few weeks
