Abstract
Background: We studied the pattern of herbal and dietary supplement (HDS) use in patients with chronic liver disease (CLD) during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Methods: A questionnaire/survey was sent to hepatology patients with CLD under the care of hepatologists at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.
Results: The 5 most taken dietary supplements during the pandemic included vitamin B12 (27.7%), vitamin C (32.4%), vitamin D (54.6%), zinc (25.4%) and green tea extract (20.8%). Most participants (82.3%) did not discuss their HDS use with their hepatology providers.
Conclusions: Healthcare providers should be mindful of potential HDS use in patients with CLD.
