All RX and over the counter drugs affect the liver. In the elderly, it is far more dangerous. If you are fearful, ask your md or pharmacist. Each year, there are over 100,000 deaths from medications. lawsuits? I do not know. I do know not to mix booze and phenobarbital.
You can get a good Milk Thistle from a reliable Vitamin Shop, it helps the liver to process all the toxins we consume daily, and do not know it, Use the phenobarbital as prescribed, Never mix with cough meds or drugs that are OTC to help you sleep. You might kill yourself by suppressing your ability to breathe.
