Advice & Tips
Works well at preventing severe attacks but I do worry at this dosage about my liver considering the other medications I am on that also filter threw the liver most especially the Tylenol.
To be free from the major pain and being able to eat a decent diet again is almost priceless however so well worth the risk.
