Liver Stress

Liver stress involves a spectrum of adverse effects on the liver, potentially causing inflammation, impaired function, or even liver damage, with symptoms such as elevated liver enzymes and jaundice. The severity is influenced by the causative agent, dosage, and individual factors.

Liver stress encompasses a range of adverse effects on the liver, potentially leading to inflammation, impaired function, or even liver damage. This can manifest as elevated liver enzymes (AST, ALT), jaundice, fatigue, abdominal pain, dark urine, pale stools, nausea, vomiting, and in severe cases, liver failure. The severity depends on the causative agent, dosage, duration of exposure, and individual susceptibility. The mechanism typically involves direct hepatotoxicity (damage to liver cells), immune-mediated injury, or interference with liver metabolism and bile flow. Pre-existing liver conditions and certain medications can increase the risk of liver stress.
