Udiliv, is it prescribed for cirrhosis of liver or for a sluggish liver or for any other reason. That are the consumption uses. How about a person having Diatebetes-2, also? ## Udiliv contains the active ingredient Ursodiol, it is a bile acid and is mainly given to dissolve gallstones.

I Was Using This Tablet. Now Came To China from India. This drug is not available in china. How to find the alternative tablet with the same chemical formula that is available in china ## This contains the active ingredient Ursodiol, which is also known as Ursodeoxycholic Acid, so you may find it under either of those.

I need this medication i am here traveling from EUROPE. ## I'm sorry, but this site does not manufacture, nor sell any medications, this is an information only website. This is available in the U.S. under the name Ursodiol,, however, it does require a doctor's prescription here. You may also need to see a doctor here, if the pharmacy cannot reach your current doctor, since they are from a different country. Are there any other questions or comments?

I have been taking Ursodiol 500 for 1 year now. My prescription can not be filled because my insurance only carries $1200.00 in one year and I use that up in 6 months. I have not had any for 2 weeks. PLEASE HELP I have no prescription coverage for now, ## Have you been prescribed Ursodiol for treatment of (cholesterol) gallstones? If so, I just want to add that there are easy methods for prevention of future gallstones, as well as simple dietary habits that will manage your cholesterol levels. Dehydration is a major probable cause for gallstones. This is easily avoided if you don't drink enough water on a regular basis by consuming more higher water content foods, like fruits and vegetables (more so fruits, because they on average can contain around 70+ percent water, which is exact...

I took Loestrin for about 5 years until I got married and started a family. I am curious to know if anyone else had gall bladder disease/gallstones after taking Loestrin. After having my second child I discovered through an ultrasound that I had gallstones and I had my gall bladder removed. ## There is really no definitive way to say what might have caused the problem. Women are twice as likely as men to develop gallstones, because they can be caused by excess levels of estrogen, which increases the cholesterol levels in your bile and slows the movement of the gallbladder. Therefore, you have two possible factors that could have affected it, the fact that you used hormonal contraception and your pregnancies, it could have been caused by either one or they both could have contributed to ...

WOULD LIKE TO KNOW THE USAGE FOR NEFROSAVE AND URSOCOL 300 ## Ursodiol, also known as ursodeoxycholic acid and the abbreviation UDCA, is one of the secondary bile acids, which are metabolic byproducts of intestinal bacteria. Primary bile acids are produced by the liver and stored in the gall bladder. When secreted into the colon, primary bile acids can be metabolized into secondary bile acids by intestinal bacteria. Primary and secondary bile acids help the body digest fats. Ursodeoxycholic acid helps regulate cholesterol by reducing the rate at which the intestine absorbs cholesterol molecules while breaking up micelles containing cholesterol. Because of this property, ursodeoxycholic acid is used to treat (cholesterol) gallstones non-surgically. Nefrosave is manufactured out of India,...

Can anyone please tell me the purpose of this medicine? ## Urdiogem (Ursodeoxycholic Acid) is manufactured in India, so it is difficult to locate detailed information about it in the US drug databases. I did the retrieve the US version of this pill to be Ursodiol (also known as Ursodeoxycholic Acid). Ursodeoxycholic acid helps regulate cholesterol by reducing the rate at which the GI tract absorbs cholesterol molecules while breaking up micelles containing cholesterol. Because of this property, ursodeoxycholic acid is used to treat (cholesterol) gallstones non-surgically. I hope this helps!

How to take Ursocol 300? What are ite side effects? How long one should take? ## Ursodiol 300 mg (Ursodeoxycholic Acid), comes in capsule form, and is taken orally. Side effects include: Diarrhea, constipation, upset stomach, indigestion, dizziness, vomiting, cough, sore throat, runny nose, back pain, muscle and joint pain, hair loss.
