Ursodec 300 mg Tablet contains Ursodeoxycholic Acid (UDCA) as its active ingredient. It is primarily used for the dissolution of cholesterol gallstones in the gallbladder and for the treatment of primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC), a chronic liver disease.

Ursodec 300 helps to reduce cholesterol levels in bile, preventing gallstone formation. It also protects liver cells, improves bile flow, and supports liver function in various chronic liver disorders.

This medicine promotes gradual dissolution of gallstones that are not calcified and helps maintain normal bile composition for better digestive and hepatic health.

How Ursodec 300 Works

Ursodeoxycholic Acid is a naturally occurring bile acid that works by:

• Reducing cholesterol absorption from the intestine

• Decreasing cholesterol secretion into bile

• Improving bile flow in the liver and gallbladder

• Protecting liver cells from bile acid–induced damage

This combined action dissolves existing gallstones and prevents new stones from forming while promoting healthy liver function.
