Appliaction: Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA), also known as ursodiol, is a naturally-occurring bile acid. It exists in the body in combination with taurine in bile as a cholesterol stone dissolver. It can reduce the secretion of cholesterol by the liver, lower the saturation of cholesterol in bile, promote the secretion of bile acids, increase the solubility of cholesterol in bile, and dissolve cholesterol stones or prevent the formation of stones. It can increase the bile secretion, relax the bile duct sphincter to produce choleretic effect, which is conducive to the discharge of stones. It is suitable for the treatment of cholesterol stones, hyperlipidemia, bile secretion disorders, primary biliary cirrhosis, chronic hepatitis, bile reflux gastritis and the prevention of acute rejection and reaction to liver transplantation.
