Urso (Ursodiol)
General information
Urso is a bile acid that decreases the amount of cholesterol produced by the liver and absorbed by the intestines. It helps break down cholesterol that has formed into stones in the gallbladder. Urso also increases bile flow in patients with primary biliary cirrhosis. It is used to treat a group of conditions known as cholestatic liver diseases (e.g., primary biliary cirrhosis).
Directions
Take Urso exactly as prescribed by your doctor. To treat cholestatic liver diseases, the recommended adult dose is based on body weight. Your doctor will calculate a dose of 13 mg to 15 mg per kilogram of body weight per day, taken by mouth in 2 to 4 divided doses with food.
Precautions
Before taking Urso you should talk with your doctor if you have liver disease, gallbladder problems (acute cholecystitis, cholangitis, biliary obstruction, gallstone pancreatitis, biliary-gastrointestinal fistula). This drug may make you dizzy. Do not drive or perform tasks that require alertness. Limit alcoholic beverages. Avoid using antacids. They can make it harder for your body to absorb ursodiol.
