Udiliv 600 Tablet

Product Overview
Udiliv 600 Tablet is prescribed to help dissolve specific gallstones by breaking down cholesterol deposits in the gallbladder, preventing new stones from forming. It is also used to manage primary biliary cirrhosis, a chronic liver condition.

This medication should be taken whole after meals with a glass of water or milk. The exact dosage depends on the condition being treated and your overall health. For the best outcome, take the tablet consistently for the full period prescribed by your healthcare provider, which can span several months. Continue treatment even if symptoms improve or disappear.

Possible Side Effects
Common side effects may include abdominal discomfort, diarrhea, hair thinning, itching, nausea, and skin rash. Not everyone experiences these effects, and they often lessen over time. If side effects continue or cause concern, consult your healthcare professional for advice or alternative treatments.

Precautions
Before starting Udiliv 600 Tablet, inform your doctor if you have inflammation of the gallbladder or bile ducts, frequent cramping in the upper abdomen, coughing up blood, or rapid unexplained weight gain. This medicine can interact with other medications, so provide your doctor with a full list of all medicines you are taking. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should seek medical advice before use to ensure safety.

Benefits

Additional medications and lifestyle adjustments may also be recommended to lower cholesterol and reduce gallstone risk.

Usage Instructions
Take the tablet as directed by your healthcare provider. Swallow it whole with food; do not chew, crush, or break the tablet.

Mechanism of Action
This medication acts as a hepatoprotective agent by lowering cholesterol levels in the blood, dissolving cholesterol-based gallstones, improving liver enzyme levels, protecting liver cells from damage by toxic bile acids, and enhancing overall liver function.
