Hepatic (liver) failure is a rare side effect of Serzone. I just started Serzone on Friday night. My doctor had me get my blood drawn for a liver function panel to get a baseline before I started taking it. Should I stay on Serzone, he will have me get my blood drawn every 6 months to moniter the liver function values. If they change, he will probably take me off the medication. He says that monitering the levels will allow him to catch the liver failure before it becomes a problem.
