UDICARE 300 (Ursodeoxycholic Acid (300mg))

Udicare 300 Tablet is indicated for the dissolution of specific types of gallstones while also preventing their formation. Additionally, it is utilized in the management of primary biliary cirrhosis, a liver condition. This medication functions by aiding the breakdown of cholesterol that has transformed into gallstones, facilitating their dissolution. It is advised to ingest Udicare 300 Tablet whole, ideally following a meal, and accompanied by either milk or water for better absorption. The prescribed dosage will be contingent upon the underlying condition being treated and the patient’s body weight. To achieve optimal results, it is important to take the medication consistently throughout the prescribed duration, which may extend for several months or longer. Patients should continue taking the tablet even if they experience an alleviation of symptoms. Side effects can occur, including abdominal discomfort, diarrhea, loss of hair, itching, nausea, and skin rashes; not all individuals will experience these reactions. If any side effects are concerning or persist, it is important to communicate with your healthcare provider. Prior to initiating treatment, it is crucial to inform your doctor of any existing gallbladder or bile duct inflammation, recurrent cramp-like abdominal pain, instances of coughing up blood, or sudden weight gain. This medication may interact with other drugs, so disclose all current medications to your doctor. Women using hormonal contraceptives should discuss alternative options, as these can elevate gallstone production. Monitoring through ultrasound examinations or regular blood tests to assess liver health may be necessary during treatment.
