Hepatic impairment

Hepatic impairment refers to reduced function of the liver, which plays a vital role in detoxifying toxins, producing important proteins, and processing medications. When the liver is impaired, these processes slow down or become less effective, leading to potential buildup of harmful substances and changes in how the body handles drugs. This can result from conditions like liver disease, cirrhosis, or hepatitis. Managing hepatic impairment involves adjusting medications and monitoring liver health to prevent complications and ensure proper treatment.
