About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Estuchol 150 Tablet contains Ursodeoxycholic Acid 150mg, a bile acid used primarily to treat certain liver and gallbladder conditions. It works by reducing the cholesterol content of bile, which helps dissolve cholesterol gallstones and prevents their formation. Additionally, Ursodeoxycholic Acid improves liver function by protecting liver cells from damage and promoting the flow of bile. Estuchol 150 is commonly prescribed for patients with primary biliary cholangitis, a chronic liver disease, and for those who cannot undergo surgery for gallstones. It may also be used to treat certain types of cholestasis, a condition characterized by impaired bile flow. The medication is generally well-tolerated, but some patients may experience mild side effects such as diarrhea, nausea, or abdominal discomfort. It is important to take Estuchol 150 exactly as directed by a healthcare professional, usually with food to enhance absorption and reduce gastrointestinal upset. Regular monitoring of liver function tests is recommended during treatment to assess efficacy and detect any adverse effects. Estuchol 150 should not be used in patients with complete biliary obstruction or acute inflammation of the gallbladder. Always consult a healthcare provider before starting or stopping this medication.

About Ursodeoxycholic Acid
Ursodeoxycholic acid is a bile acid used primarily in the treatment of gallstones and primary biliary cholangitis, an autoimmune liver disease. It works by reducing cholesterol levels in bile, thus aiding in the dissolution of cholesterol gallstones and improving liver function. Additionally, it is indicated for treating liver diseases in children and is beneficial in managing conditions related to cystic fibrosis. Its clinical significance lies in its ability to enhance bile flow and protect liver cells from damage. In summary, ursodeoxycholic acid is essential for promoting liver health and managing cholesterol-related disorders.
How It Works
