Uses:-
Ursodeoxycholic acid suspension is a medication used to treat certain liver and gallbladder conditions. It works by decreasing the production of cholesterol in the liver and dissolving cholesterol-based gallstones, thereby preventing their formation and reducing the risk of complications such as gallstone-related pain or inflammation of the gallbladder. Ursodeoxycholic acid is also used to improve liver function and treat certain liver diseases, including primary biliary cholangitis and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Additionally, it may be prescribed to prevent the formation of gallstones in individuals who are undergoing rapid weight loss or certain medical treatments.
Side Effects:-
Ursodeoxycholic acid suspension is generally well-tolerated, but like all medications, it may cause side effects in some individuals. Common side effects may include mild gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, diarrhea, or stomach discomfort, which usually improve with continued use. In rare cases, allergic reactions to ursodeoxycholic acid may occur, characterized by symptoms such as rash, itching, swelling, or difficulty breathing. Additionally, long-term use of ursodeoxycholic acid may increase the risk of certain liver disorders, so it is important to monitor liver function regularly while taking this medication.
