Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your problem and condition. Chemotherapy Chat Doctor.  So we need to be very cautious in cirrhotic patient as chances of acute liver failure are high. And your husband has already developed jaundice after chemotherapy, so we can not give further chemo. His body will not withstand it. Better to start palliative treatment in the form of multivitamins, anti oxidants, protein powder and painkillers. Discuss end of life issues with him. And both the powder are good. You can use either of them.
