Study Arms (2)
Experimental group
EXPERIMENTALSilymarin 400 mg daily, orally, divided into two doses, for three days preoperatively
Control group
NO INTERVENTIONOptimal standard therapy
Interventions
Subjects of the experimental group will receive silymarin (capsules containing 100 mg silymarin, expressed as silibinin) three days preoperatively. The dose they receive will be the recommended dose for the registered indications (400 mg daily, orally, divided into two doses).
