I can tell you from personal experience that when my liver enzymes are elevated, there is all over itching that nothing seems to help. My PCP started me on milk thistle to help bring the enzymes down and it did the trick. Every time I try to lower the dose, however, the itching resumes and the site reactions get more pronounced.

We are now doing my LFT's every month. As long as I stay at 500mg of Milk Thistle morning and night, things seem to stay under control.

Have you had your blood checked since you started on the beta?
