I've just started reading about this medication, Livmarli 9.5mg/ml Solution, 30ml. It's supposed to help with itching caused by certain liver diseases in children. The way it works is fascinating – by blocking a specific protein in the intestines, more bile acids are removed from the body through stool. This lowers the levels of bile acids in the blood and can reduce itching. Has anyone had any experience with this medication, and if so, what should we expect in terms of side effects and overall effectiveness? And what do we know about dosage?
