@parrot53 I am 1.5 years out from my liver transplant. When I was still sick I had one episode of HE pre lactulose, and 3 episodes after; they had to adjust the dose and within a few months it stopped happening. Those episodes knocked my socks off, scary. As gross as lactulose is, it’s much better that HE so you may want to try it. Are you also taking xixifan? It helps address the bacteria in your gut that promote these episodes. Good luck!

Thank you for your reply. I am thankful not to have had any HE episodes. I am scared that the constipation will bring it on. I do not like what I hear about Lactulose so I am trying to adjust fiber, water, exercise, and consulting the nutritionist before I resort to using it. I really appreciate your response. Thank you again.
