Description
Actigall is a medication that is used to dissolve specific types of gallstones and to prevent the formation of gallstones in people who are fast losing weight. Bile, a digestive fluid that aids in the breakdown of lipids and fatty acids, is produced by the gallbladder. Gallstones are bile deposits that solidify in the gallbladder.
They may be present without creating symptoms, but when they clog the bile duct, they can produce symptoms. This medication acts in the liver to minimize the quantity of cholesterol produced. Bile is less prone to produce bile stones when cholesterol release is reduced.
This drug is typically supplied as Actigall 300 mg capsule in bottles of 100 with child-resistant closures
