Udiliv 300 MG Description
Udiliv 300 tablet is a medicine used to dissolve cholesterol gallstones. It is also used to treat various liver-related disorders. Udiliv 300 contains ursodeoxycholic acid as its active ingredient.
Cholesterol gallstones are hardened deposits of digestive juice containing an excess of cholesterol. These are formed in the gall bladder (a small organ found under the liver). Udiliv 300 tablet works by reducing cholesterol content in bile juice. A few more tablets that also contain ursodeoxycholic acid are Golbi 300, Ursocol 300, Ursokem 300 and Ursolid 300.
This medicine also helps in dissolving gallstones and prevents the formation of new stones. Along with Tab Udiliv, you can lower your risk of gallstones by following a healthy lifestyle, eating clean and getting regular physical activity.
