Overview Udilox 150 Tablet

Ursodiol 150mg tablets dissolve existing gallstones and hinder new formation. They also treat primary biliary cholangitis, a liver disorder. The medication works by breaking down cholesterol gallstones, facilitating their dissolution. Swallow the tablet whole with food and a beverage (milk or water). Dosage varies depending on your condition and weight. Consistent use is crucial for optimal results; continue taking it as prescribed (potentially months or longer), even if symptoms subside. Common side effects, not experienced by all, include abdominal discomfort, diarrhea, alopecia, pruritus, nausea, and skin rashes. Report persistent or concerning side effects to your physician. Inform your doctor of any gallbladder or bile duct inflammation, recurring upper abdominal cramps, hemoptysis, or rapid weight gain before starting treatment. Ursodiol may alter the effectiveness of other medications; disclose all current medications. Women should cease using hormonal contraceptives, as these can increase gallstone formation. Regular ultrasounds and liver function blood tests may be necessary during treatment.

FAQs on Udilox 150 Tablet

Dosage and timing for Udilox 150 Tablet vary depending on your condition. Your doctor may prescribe 2-3 doses daily, with the last dose at bedtime. Take the tablet with water or milk, with or without food. For gallstones, a single nightly dose is typical. If taking multiple doses, maintain at least a 6-hour interval (e.g., 8 am, 2 pm, 8 pm).
Udilox 150 Tablet is generally safe and effective. While diarrhea is a possible side effect, your doctor may adjust the dosage or discontinue treatment if necessary. Long-term use can affect liver enzymes, requiring regular monitoring. Nevertheless, it offers a viable non-surgical option for some gallstone patients.
Udilox 150 Tablets concentrate in bile, suppressing liver cholesterol production and secretion, thus lowering bile cholesterol. The drug also inhibits intestinal absorption of bile salts and cholesterol. This reduced bile cholesterol saturation facilitates gallstone dissolution, shrinking them and potentially eliminating them. Finally, increased bile flow protects liver cells by reducing elevated liver enzyme levels.
Udilox 150 Tablet may cause weight gain, though this is uncommon. Weight gain is more likely in patients with liver disease involving bile duct blockage, preventing bile flow to the intestines. Individual responses vary; consult your doctor if you experience weight gain.
Udilox 150 Tablet's effectiveness may be reduced by antacids, cholestyramine, or colestipol. Consult your doctor before taking these medications concurrently; they should advise on appropriate timing. Similarly, avoid oral contraceptives, estrogenic hormones, and clofibrate (a cholesterol-lowering agent) due to increased gallstone risk and potential interactions with Udilox 150 Tablet.
