Stomach and intestinal (gastrointestinal) problems. LIVMARLI can cause stomach and intestinal problems, including diarrhea and stomach pain during treatment. Diarrhea can also cause the loss of too much body fluid (severe dehydration).

Your health care provider may change your dose, or temporarily or permanently stop treatment if you have certain side effects.
