Tell your healthcare provider right away if you have any of the following signs or symptoms of worsening liver problems during treatment with LIVDELZI:

  • swelling of your stomach area (abdomen) from a build-up of fluid
  • yellowing of your skin or the whites of your eyes
  • pain on the right side of your stomach (abdomen)
  • black, tarry, or bloody stools
  • coughing up or vomiting blood, or your vomit looks like “coffee grounds”
  • mental changes such as confusion, being sleepier than usual or harder to wake up, slurred speech, mood swings, or changes in personality

LIVDELZI had a lower discontinuation rate (3.1%) due to side effects vs placebo (4.6%)

Side effects can vary from person to person
