Chronic Liver Disease
Conditions
Brief summary
The drug in this study is combined product of biphenyl dimethyl dicarboxylate (DDB) and garlic oil. This components showed synergistic enhancing effects in previous tests. In phase 2 test, 6 cap three times a day dosage (2cap T.I.D) is better than other dosage. Based on above, this study is phase 3 test to prove efficacy and safety of PENNEL.
Interventions
