I am suffering from pet allergy and would like to take antihistamines.. which over the counter are safe with cirrhosis? Are there any other suggestions to relieve the symptoms. All blood work are within normal range and living a normal healthy life, obviously no alcohol.

Hi. I take citirizine one a day, every day for many years now under advice from GP due to multiple allergies. I would suggest you ask a pharmacist to be sure.

Update.. I spoke to the liver nurses and they informed me piriton is their antihistamine of choice, they use in the hospital for patients suffering from itching due to liver issues
