What pain reliever is the most gentle on the liver?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
None: If they have Acetaminophen , they have the ability to damage he liver. If you really need to take pain meds , and there is Acetaminophen in the pills, take n acetyl cysteine every day to protect the liver by regenerating glutathione that is lost in detoxifying the body of the acetaminophen.

Which pain reliever doesn't affect your liver?
I recently had a liver function test and the results showed I have liver damage. I'm wondering what I can take as a pain reliever. I've read that acetaminophen is horrible for the liver, but my doctor said it was fine to take. Is it?
