Hello lybrate-user, Cirrosam 400 is a combination tablet of S-AdenosylMethionine, this compound/enzyme is naturally produced in a healthy liver. However due to repeated consumption of large quantities of alcohol the production of this enzyme is reduced. This enzyme normally helps by converting toxic free radicals called proOxidants, glutathione is one part of the three mechanisms that exists in our human body to protect us from free radicals/pro oxidants. S-AdenosylMethionine supplementation for an individual with alcoholic liver cirrhosis helps the liver do its job! In hope that it allows some recovery! Again the final definitive therapy would be a liver resection and or transplantation. Depending on severity of the disease process. Diet Low fat diet is advisable, as the liver produces something called bile to digest fat, you may want to cut down of fatty meals. Also support your diet with natural enzyme tablets. Please meet a clinical nutritionist and ask for a low fat moderate carbohydrate diet plan. This will be most beneficial for your husband. Hope this helps.
