Treatment Methods for Hepatic Ascites

Hepatic ascites can typically be managed under a physician’s guidance with diuretic medications—such as glutathione or compound glycyrrhizin tablets—to alleviate symptoms. In cases of severe hepatic ascites, paracentesis (a minimally invasive procedure) may be performed to remove excess fluid from the peritoneal cavity. Additionally, during treatment, patients are advised to rest in bed as much as possible and follow a light, bland diet.
