Overview Udigal 150 Tablet

Ursodiol 150mg tablets are indicated for gallstone dissolution and prevention. They're also prescribed for primary biliary cholangitis, a liver condition. The medication works by breaking down cholesterol-based gallstones, facilitating their dissolution. Swallow Ursodiol 150mg whole with food and a beverage (milk or water). Dosage varies based on the condition being treated and patient weight. Consistent use, as directed (often for months or longer), is crucial for optimal results; continue treatment even if symptoms improve. Common side effects include abdominal discomfort, diarrhea, alopecia, pruritus, nausea, and skin rash, but not everyone experiences these. Report any persistent or concerning side effects to your physician. Prior to initiating therapy, inform your doctor of any gallbladder or bile duct inflammation, recurrent upper abdominal cramping, hemoptysis, or recent significant weight gain. Ursodiol may interact with other medications; disclose all concurrent medications. Women should cease hormonal contraceptives, as these may exacerbate gallstone formation. Regular ultrasound examinations and liver function blood tests may be necessary during treatment.

FAQs on Udigal 150 Tablet

Dosage and timing for Udigal 150 Tablet vary depending on your condition. Your doctor will determine the appropriate schedule, which may be 2-3 times daily, with the final dose at bedtime. Take the tablet with water or milk, with or without food. For gallstone dissolution, a single nightly dose is typically recommended. If taking multiple doses, maintain a 6-hour interval (e.g., 8 am, 2 pm, 8 pm).
Udigal 150 Tablet is generally safe and effective. Diarrhea is a possible side effect; your doctor may adjust the dosage or discontinue treatment if it persists. Long-term use can affect liver enzyme levels, requiring regular monitoring. Nevertheless, it offers a viable non-surgical option for certain gallstone patients.
Udigal 150 Tablet works by concentrating in bile, reducing cholesterol synthesis and secretion in the liver. It also inhibits intestinal absorption of bile salts and cholesterol. This lowers cholesterol saturation in bile, promoting gallstone dissolution. Increased bile flow protects liver cells and reduces elevated liver enzyme levels.
While weight gain is a possible side effect of Udigal 150 Tablet, it's infrequent. It's more likely to occur in patients with liver disease causing bile stasis, preventing bile flow to the intestines. Weight gain risk varies individually; consult your doctor if this occurs.
To maximize Udigal 150 Tablet effectiveness, don't take antacids, cholestyramine, or colestipol without your doctor's advice; they can reduce Udigal 150 Tablet's efficacy. Similarly, avoid oral contraceptives, estrogenic hormones, and clofibrate (a cholesterol-lowering agent) as these may increase gallstone risk and counter Udigal 150 Tablet's action. Always consult your doctor about appropriate timing for taking Udigal 150 Tablet with other medications.
