<bot>: Hello, Thanks for writing to Udall patients with cirrhosis can benefit from certain lifestyle changes, including:Stop Chat Doctor. Limit salt in the diet. Eat a nutritious diet. Get vaccinated for influenza, hepatitis A and hepatitis B, and pneumococcal pneumonia (if recommended by your doctor). Tell your doctor about all prescription and non-prescription medications, and any herbs and supplements you take now or are thinking of taking. Hope this helps you. Let me know if you have any more concern. Wishing you good health... Regards.
