Actibile-150

Ursodeoxycholic Acid (ACTIBILE) is a non-toxic hydrophilic bile acid that exhibits hepatoprotection against hydrophobic bile acids. UDCA (ACTIBILE) is currently used in clinical practice worldwide for cholestatic liver diseases like primary biliary cirrhosis. Primary sclerosing cholangitis and intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy. Besides classic cholestatic diseases, UDCA also improves liver biochemistry in alcoholic liver diseases, non alcoholic steatohepatitis and in chronic viral hepatitis.

The drug is US FDA approved for Gall Stone dissolutions and chronic cholestatic diseases. Much progress has been made from the first concept that the only mechanism of action of this bile acid was its choleretic action. One of the most fascinating mechanism of action evoked for UDCA (ACTIBILE) is its immunomodulating, antiapoptic action. Studies have indicated that UDCA has specific anti ulcerant properties.
