FAQs
Q. Can Terowin 250mg Tablet be safe for use in patients with liver cirrhosis?

Therefore, it is important to inform your doctor if you have any liver disease or cirrhosis. Also, inform your doctor about the medicines you may be taking as taking Terowin 250mg Tablet with another medicine can lead to liver toxicity and Terowin 250mg Tablet by acting on the liver enzymes can change the levels of other drugs. Your doctor may suggest periodic monitoring (after 4-6 weeks of treatment) of liver function test and make dose adjustments accordingly.
