Abstract: Evaluation of all treatment methods and pharmacotherapy of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The development of obesity and the rapid spread of diabetes have led to the fact that NAFLD is now the most famous liver disease. The main non-pharmacological treatments for NAFLD are a low-calorie diet with a sufficient content of polyunsaturated fats and dosed physical activity in order to reduce BMI. Among the drugs, the leading positions are occupied by insulin sensitizers, antioxidants (vitamin E) and polyunsaturated fatty acid preparations (Essential Forte N). Several new drugs for the treatment of NAFLD are in the process of clinical trials. Due to the high increase in the frequency of NAFLD, new methods for diagnosing and treating this disease are being actively developed.
