(others welcome too) Generally speaking PSC patients can have deficiencies for the " fat soluable " vitamins (A, D, E and K). I take these vitamins in a tablet form twice a day.

(others welcome too) Hi: What do folks find themselves taking for Vitamins? My Doc checks D, and A but doesn't run a complete scan. I've had PSC for 22 years, take rifampin and questran which can interfere with vitamin absorption. I also have an illeostomy. I've heard that B1 (Niacin) can be somewhat toxic to the liver. It appears as though Folic Acid, B3, B6, and B12 deficiencies are common in PSC and with those medications. Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
