Lifestyle and home remedies

If you've been diagnosed with primary sclerosing cholangitis, take steps to care for your liver, such as:

• Don't drink alcohol.
• Get vaccinated against hepatitis A and B.
• Use care with chemicals at home and at work.
• Maintain a healthy weight.
• Follow directions on all medications, both prescription and over-the-counter. Make sure your pharmacist and any doctor prescribing for you know that you have a liver disease.
• Talk to your doctor about any herbs or supplements you're taking since some can be harmful to your liver.
