Treatment and symptoms of Bilirubin direct 0.8 mg/dL | Diet for high Bilirubin direct level 0.8 mg/dL
High Bilirubin direct level of 0.8 can cause a number of symptoms.
An abnormal direct bilirubin level of 0.8 may suggest issues with liver function or bile flow. When direct bilirubin measures 0.8, it can be associated with symptoms such as jaundice, dark urine, fatigue, and abdominal discomfort. Elevated direct bilirubin levels are often linked to liver diseases, bile duct obstruction, or certain types of hemolytic anemia.

Though treatment choices are numerous, adjusting your diet immediately is the most important step.

Below are the symptoms and treatments associated with high direct bilirubin levels:
- Symptoms of High Direct Bilirubin (Hyperbilirubinemia):
- Yellowing of the skin (jaundice)
- Yellowing of the whites of the eyes (scleral icterus)
- Dark-colored urine
- Light-colored stools
- Fatigue or weakness
- Loss of appetite
- Abdominal pain or discomfort (particularly on the right side of the abdomen, near the liver)
- Treatments for High Direct Bilirubin:
- The treatment for high direct bilirubin levels focuses on identifying and addressing the underlying cause, such as liver disease (e.g., hepatitis, cirrhosis), bile duct obstruction (e.g., gallstones), or hemolysis (destruction of red blood cells).
- If the cause is liver disease, antiviral medications, antifibrotic drugs, or supportive care may be used, depending on the specific condition.
- In the case of bile duct obstruction, procedures such as bile duct stenting or surgery may be necessary to remove the blockage (e.g., in the case of gallstones or tumors).
- For hemolysis, treatment would involve addressing the root cause, such as discontinuing medications that cause red blood cell destruction, treating infections, or managing autoimmune conditions.
- For newborns with jaundice caused by high bilirubin levels, phototherapy (light therapy) is commonly used to reduce bilirubin levels.
