摘要
Complications of chemotherapy including liver injury have always been an issue in the management of cancerous patients. A 5-year-old girl, known case of acute lymphocytic leukemia, presented with rise of liver enzymes diagnosed as chemotherapy drug-induced liver injury grade 1. A juice from soaked fruits (consisted of tamarind, prune, manna of Hedysarum, and brown sugar) followed by chicory distilled water with oxymel was used concomitant with chemotherapy; it resulted in a significant decrease in liver enzymes. Such natural products recommended by Persian Medicine for the management of liver injury (liver dystemperament in this viewpoint) should be further evaluated in experimental studies.
