Abstract
Hyperammonemia is a metabolic disorder, which is caused as a result of high levels of ammonia present in the blood.

The article describes various causes and clinical features of hyperammonemia related to the pre-cirrhotic stages of liver disease, especially to non-alcoholic fatty dystrophy. The authors also provide other etiologies that cause hyperammonemia of varying severity, from minimal to very severe, leading to fatal outcome. The paper provides an analysis of the efficacy of L-ornithine-L-aspartate in hyperammonemia, and the results of own original author’s pharmaceutical equivalence study of the original and generic drug L-ornithine-L-aspartate.
