Description
Xiao Zheng and Jinjuan Xu test a liver-protecting drug during tuberculosis treatment in a study from two thousand twenty-four. TB drugs strain the liver, and a licorice-derived compound may shield it. Records of one hundred thirteen patients at one hospital were reviewed.
Fifty-eight patients got the compound alongside standard TB therapy; fifty-five got therapy alone. The protected group fared better overall and suffered less liver injury. Liver blood markers rose in both groups during treatment, but stayed lower with the compound. Side effect rates did not differ between groups. The authors conclude the add-on improves the treatment's overall effect while easing liver harm. They frame it as a practical companion to standard regimens.
