Ursodeoxycholic Acid (UDCA) is a naturally occurring bile acid and a key hepatoprotective agent. It is used to dissolve gallstones, improve bile flow, protect liver cells, and reduce cholesterol saturation in bile. It is one of the most widely prescribed agents for cholestatic liver diseases and gallstone prevention.
Ursodeoxycholic Acid modifies the bile acid composition and reduces hepatocellular injury by decreasing toxic hydrophobic bile acids. It stabilizes hepatocyte membranes, protects mitochondria from oxidative stress, and promotes choleresis (bile secretion). UDCA also reduces cholesterol absorption and secretion into bile, preventing gallstone formation.
