There is no function of the liver to drugs, but rather drugs affect the liver. My grandma has been on drugs for so long that now her liver is failing.
Basically no one knows how long a person can live with liver cancer. If something is not done, and fast, the answer is not long. One woman lived 2 months after diagnosis. Good luck on getting a living donor for a liver transplant. It takes the donor's liver 6 weeks for the missing half to grow back. Do you have any friends or relatives with the same blood type?

Estimated life expectancy's with liver failure are estimated with the Child-Pugh score. You may find the related link helpful. It really depends upon when it is found out that the liver is "failing" as to how long it is before the liver completely fails. If is is noticed early that the liver is slowly losing function, and at a stable rate, it can still be years before the liver completely ceases to function.

Your liver filters the blood in your body turning the filtered product into bile. thats how alcoholics have cirrhosis of the liver(hardening of the liver) because it has filtered to much alcohol out of the bloodstream for to long of a period of time.
A newborn's liver works when he is born it just is not fully matured. That is why jaundice is a problem for some newborns since the liver can not fully excrete the excess bilirubin resulting from red blood cell break down.
The liver is your body's filter mechanism. In long term alcoholics the liver can fail leaving impurities to flow through the bloodstream. This then leads to kidney failure. The most important thing to know is that alcoholism stop the livers' production of vitamin K, the clottong mechanism in the blood. This means that if one bleeds internally or externally, the stopping of blood loss is difficult and can be a futile effort.
