Not sure which country you are in but I hope the following link will load for you. Not specific to PBC but a general overview. Generally anything we take has to be a trade off of being able to live our lives against what has to be processed through the liver. Has your doctor prescribed anything for your fibromyalgia?

It may be beneficial to send an email or telephone the PBC Foundation as they have a helpline. They also have regular Q&A sessions with specialists where questions such as these can be asked. Events are posted on their web page. pbcfoundation.org.uk/
