There isn't specific information available about a supplement called "DOSE" for liver health in the context of PBC. It's always worth being cautious with any supplement when living with PBC, as some can actually strain the liver or interact with medications like UDCA or obeticholic acid.

There isn't specific information available about a supplement called "DOSE" for liver health in the context of PBC. It's always worth being cautious with any supplement when living with PBC, as some can actually strain the liver or interact with medications like UDCA or obeticholic acid.

Here's what's generally known about supplements and PBC:

- No supplement has strong evidence for directly helping PBC
- Fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K) are commonly needed due to poor absorption
- Omega-3s may help reduce inflammation but can thin the blood
- Probiotics may support gut health and nutrient absorption
- High doses of any supplement can cause more liver damage

Before trying any new supplement, it's really important to check with your hepatologist or gastroenterologist first. They can review the ingredients and make sure nothing interferes with your current treatment plan.

Connecting with others on myPBCteam who may have tried similar products could also give you some real-world insight from people who truly get it.
