Drivers

Does not affect.

Overdose may cause diarrhea. Overdose is unlikely, as the absorption of ursodeoxycholic acid decreases with increasing dose and most of it is excreted in the feces.

In case of diarrhea, the dose should be reduced; if diarrhea persists, therapy should be discontinued.

No specific countermeasures are necessary; the effects of diarrhea should be treated symptomatically, maintaining fluid and electrolyte balance.

Gastrointestinal: loose stools or diarrhea, severe pain in the right upper abdomen.

Liver and gallbladder: calcification of gallstones, decompensation of liver cirrhosis, which partially regressed after discontinuation of treatment.

Estrogen hormones, as well as drugs to reduce cholesterol concentration in the blood, can increase the secretion of cholesterol by the liver and, thus, contribute to the formation of gallstones, which is the opposite effect of ursodeoxycholic acid, which is used to dissolve them.

Store at a temperature not exceeding 25 °C in the original packaging.

Keep out of reach of children.

Shelf life – 3 years.
