Udiliv 450mg Tablet

Product Overview
Udiliv 450mg Tablet is used to help dissolve specific types of gallstones by breaking down cholesterol deposits in the gallbladder. It is also prescribed for the management of primary biliary cirrhosis, a chronic liver condition.

This tablet should be taken whole after meals, accompanied by water or milk. The dosage prescribed will depend on your particular health needs and condition. For best results, take the medication consistently for the full duration recommended by your healthcare provider, which may extend over several months. Continue treatment even if symptoms improve.

Possible Side Effects
Some users may experience side effects such as abdominal discomfort, diarrhea, hair thinning, itching, nausea, or skin rash. These effects do not occur in everyone and often diminish with time. If side effects persist or cause significant concern, consult your doctor for advice or alternative treatment options.

Important Precautions
Inform your healthcare provider if you have inflammation of the gallbladder or bile ducts, experience frequent cramping in your upper abdomen, cough up blood, or have rapid, unexplained weight gain. This medication can influence the effectiveness of other drugs, so ensure your doctor is aware of all medicines you are currently using. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should seek medical advice before starting this treatment to confirm its safety.

Uses

• Dissolving gallstones

• Treating primary biliary cirrhosis

Benefits
Udiliv 450mg Tablet helps lower cholesterol production in the liver, facilitating the breakdown of cholesterol-based gallstones. Since gallstones may take months to dissolve fully, it’s important to follow your doctor’s instructions closely. Additional medications and lifestyle changes may be recommended to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of new gallstone formation.

How to Use
Take the tablet as directed by your healthcare professional. Swallow it whole with food and do not chew, crush, or split the tablet.

How It Works
Udiliv is a hepatoprotective drug that decreases cholesterol in the blood, aiding in dissolving gallstones primarily made of cholesterol. It also helps protect liver cells from damage caused by toxic bile acids and supports liver function by improving enzyme levels.
