Product Overview
Ursosan 250mg ursodeoxycholic acid capsules 90S — a liver-protective bile acid for primary biliary cholangitis, cholestatic liver disease, and gallstone dissolution.
Product Description
Ursosan 250Mg Cap 90S contains ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) 250mg, a naturally occurring bile acid with well-established hepatoprotective, immunomodulatory, and choleretic properties used in the long-term management of various cholestatic liver diseases and for the dissolution of radiolucent cholesterol gallstones. UDCA is the active ingredient in Ursosan, and it works through multiple complementary mechanisms including replacing toxic hydrophobic bile acids in the bile acid pool with a more hydrophilic, cell-membrane-protective compound, reducing hepatocyte apoptosis triggered by toxic bile acid exposure, stimulating biliary secretion, and modulating aberrant immune responses in autoimmune cholestatic conditions.
Ursosan 250mg is indicated for the treatment of primary biliary cholangitis (previously primary biliary cirrhosis), primary sclerosing cholangitis, intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy, and for the dissolution of small to medium cholesterol-rich gallstones in patients who are not suitable for surgery. It is also used in a range of other cholestatic and hepatic conditions where UDCA's liver-protective properties are clinically beneficial. The 90-capsule pack provides a three-month supply at the standard weight-based dosing regimen of 10–15mg/kg/day, which in an average adult typically corresponds to two to four 250mg capsules daily depending on body weight. Long-term therapy is often required for the management of chronic cholestatic conditions, and treatment response should be monitored with liver function tests and hepatic imaging as directed by a hepatologist or gastroenterologist.
Key Benefits:
• Replaces toxic bile acids with hepatoprotective UDCA to reduce liver cell damage
• Clinically proven for primary biliary cholangitis and cholestatic liver disease
• Dissolves cholesterol-rich gallstones in suitable non-surgical candidates
• Choleretic action stimulates bile flow and supports biliary clearance
• 90-capsule pack provides a three-month supply for long-term liver disease management
• Weight-based dosing allows individualised therapeutic levels for each patient
How to Use:
Take Ursosan 250mg capsules as prescribed by your hepatologist or gastroenterologist, typically divided across the day or as a single evening dose depending on the indication and your doctor's preference. Swallow capsules whole with water. Take with food to reduce gastrointestinal discomfort. Do not stop Ursosan without medical advice, as abrupt discontinuation may cause symptom rebound in cholestatic conditions. Regular liver function monitoring is required during long-term therapy. Available on prescription only.
Ideal For:
Adults with primary biliary cholangitis, other cholestatic liver diseases, intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy, or suitable candidates for gallstone dissolution therapy requiring long-term ursodeoxycholic acid treatment under hepatological supervision.
