Livsat 300mg Tablet contains Ursodeoxycholic Acid (300 mg) and is primarily used to treat certain liver and gallbladder conditions.

Uses:

• Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC): An autoimmune disease that gradually destroys bile ducts in the liver.
• Cholesterol Gallstones: Helps dissolve small cholesterol-rich gallstones in patients who are not suitable candidates for surgery.

Mechanism of Action:

Ursodeoxycholic Acid works by reducing the production of cholesterol and decreasing its absorption in the intestines. This leads to reduced cholesterol levels in bile, facilitating the gradual dissolution of cholesterol gallstones. Additionally, it protects liver cells from injury caused by toxic bile acids and improves liver function.
