October 20, 2018 updated by: Nhat Nhat Pharmaceutical Company

A Randomized, Active-Control, Open Label, Phase IIIb Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of TONKA Compared With Silymarin (Legalon) for Lowering Hepatic Enzymes in Liver Function Disorder Patients With Moderate to High Elevated Liver

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy TONKA on the reduction of ALT and AST in moderate to severe liver enzyme elevated patients; compared with Silymarin (Legalon) after 6 weeks of treatment.
