Does anybody know whether or not psych meds have an adverse effect on the liver? I know that the human liver is basically a filter for our bodies.
Given that, I also know that people who abuse alcohol have bad livers; i.e. cirrossis of the liver, pancreatitis, ect. I am by no means a medical expert, but my thinking leads me to believe that if alcohol has a negative effect on the liver, than so should psych meds. I know that my body every day has to process 4 mgs of Xanax, 40 mgs of Lexapro, 200 mgs of Lamictal, and 50 mgs of Vistaril..
All of that has to wreak havoc on the liver, am I right?
I guess my question is is my liver in danger as a result of all of the meds that I am on ?
