As per the citing of the National Organization for Rare Diseases (NORD) 2016 report, hepatic encephalopathy is described as a brain disorder in patients previously suffering from chronic liver ailments such as liver cirrhosis, hepatitis, and acute liver failure. If effectively diagnosed, hepatic encephalopathy occurs in almost two-thirds of the patients suffering from liver cirrhosis.

Hepatic encephalopathy is categorized into 3 types Type A (acute liver failure), Type B (portal systemic bypass without liver disease), and Type C (liver cirrhosis). The exact disease etiology is unknown but the disease is triggered by the accumulation of toxins in the bloodstream as the diseased liver fails to neutralize the toxins.

The clinical manifestation associated with hepatic encephalopathy is confusion, anxiety, lethargy, seizures, confused speech, personality changes, and poor body movements. The key factors driving the hepatic encephalopathy therapeutics market are the rising prevalence of liver disorders, lack of nutrients in daily food intake, and increasing public health awareness resulting in early diagnosis and treatment.

The diagnosis of hepatic encephalopathy includes blood tests, liver function tests, detection of serum ammonia levels, and an encephalogram of the brain to measure the electrical activity of the brain. There are numerous therapeutic approaches to manage the severity of hepatic encephalopathy, but the reduction of plasma ammonia is the most preferred strategy. Lactulose is the first line of treatment as it changes the acidity of the stool to reduce the production of ammonia by killing intestinal bacteria.

Probiotics and thiamine are useful in the treatment of hepatic encephalopathy by increasing the expulsion of ammonia genic bacteria by causing the bowel to get fermented by colonic bacteria to produce lactic and acetic acid. In 2010 the USFDA approved Rifaximin for the treatment of hepatic encephalopathy by acting on the microorganisms in the intestinal tract producing ammonia.
