Description
Ursodeoxycholic Acid (UDCA) is a naturally occurring bile acid known for its hepatoprotective properties. It is commonly used to improve liver function by promoting the dissolution of cholesterol gallstones and treating various liver diseases, including primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). UDCA works by enhancing liver cell regeneration, reducing liver inflammation, and lowering elevated liver enzyme levels, such as ALT and AST. It also helps prevent the accumulation of toxic bile acids, providing protection to liver cells and improving overall liver health.
Uses
Treatment of Primary Biliary Cirrhosis (PBC)
UDCA helps slow the progression of PBC by improving bile flow and reducing bile acid toxicity.
Management of Cholesterol Gallstones
UDCA dissolves cholesterol gallstones and prevents their formation by reducing
Improvement of Liver Function in Cirrhosis or Hepatiti
UDCA improves liver function, reduces liver inflammation, and lowers elevated liver enzymes in patients with cirrhosis or hepatitis.
Supportive Treatment for Other Liver Conditions
UDCA is also used to support liver health in conditions like NAFLD, alcoholic liver disease, and metabolic liver disorders.
