If you mean hemangioma then yes. I take prescription Vit D Fultium D3 and another daily multivitamin supplement as my doctor said he had never seen vit D so low on a result. Been a year now and no side effects...

If not hemangioma then best ask your doctor X

Most welcome and the condition is completely benign if that’s the only liver issues you have x

Only take medication that has been prescribed by your doctor. Multivitamins can do more harm than good to a struggling liver.

Liver disease in all its forms can be sort of person-specific. What I mean by that is that in some cases there can be more iron in a damaged liver than in a healthy one. But then on the other side of the coin someone else with a damaged liver may also be anemic due to a lack of iron. So, what works for one person, could be damaging to another.

Always seek and follow medical advice.
