We found consistent effects of ALC significantly reducing serum ammonia level and improving NCT in patients with West Haven grade 0, 1, 2 and 3 encephalopathy versus placebo prompting that ALC may be comparable to the current medications of HE, such as non-absorbable disaccharides, rifaximin, branched chain amino acids (BCAA) and L-ornithine-L-aspartate (LOLA).29 Furthermore, ALC appears to be more well-tolerated and safe with relatively low cost
