Ursodeoxycholic Acid 150 mg
Gentle bile-acid therapy for liver and gallbladder health
LIVOFORCE 150 contains Ursodeoxycholic Acid (UDCA), a bile acid that naturally exists in small amounts in the human body. Given as a medicine, it improves the flow of bile, protects liver cells and can slowly dissolve certain kinds of gallstones.
It is used in a range of chronic liver and gallbladder conditions where healing takes months rather than days.

// Chapter 10 — Precautions
Who should be careful
- Take it with or just after food — absorption is better with a meal.
- Your doctor may repeat liver function tests to track progress; do not skip them.
- Not suitable in complete bile-duct blockage, acute gallbladder inflammation or calcified gallstones.
- In pregnancy it is used only when a doctor specifically advises it, such as in cholestasis of pregnancy.
- Give the treatment time — bile-acid therapy works gradually over weeks to months.
// Chapter 11 — Interactions
What to avoid while taking it
- Antacids containing aluminium, cholestyramine and charcoal reduce absorption — keep a 2-hour gap.
- Tell your doctor if you take cholesterol medicines or oestrogen-containing pills, which can work against the effect.
- Avoid alcohol completely — it directly damages the liver you are trying to protect.
- A low-fat, home-cooked diet supports the treatment.

Questions
How long does Livoforce 150 take to work?+

Can I stop when my reports improve?+
Only your doctor should decide; stopping too early often lets the problem return.
Does it dissolve all gallstones?+
No. It can help with small, cholesterol-type stones in a working gallbladder, not with all stones.

Yes — less oily and fried food, no alcohol, and regular meals help the liver recover.
