Summary

In this clinical study silymarin will be administered in different dosages and compared to placebo in order to address if the liver protecting features of silymarin, measured by changes of liver enzyme concentration, can be improved in patients with drug-induced elevated liver enzymes or drug-induced hepatocellular liver injury with higher systemic bioavailabilities due to administration of higher oral dosages or administration of higher administration frequency over a 35-day treatment period.
