Can Ursodeoxycholic Acid (Ursofalk) reduce bilirubin?
Ursofalk, also known as ursodeoxycholic acid capsules, can generally reduce bilirubin levels.
Ursodeoxycholic acid capsules contain ursodeoxycholic acid as the main active ingredient and are commonly used to treat conditions such as gallstones, primary biliary cirrhosis, and bile reflux gastritis. They work by reducing the secretion and reabsorption of endogenous bile acids, thereby helping to lower bilirubin levels. These capsules have choleretic and stone-dissolving effects. Since elevated bilirubin is mostly caused by liver damage, ursodeoxycholic acid capsules are relatively effective in treating high bilirubin levels. Patients should take this medication under the guidance of a qualified physician according to their specific condition, and must avoid self-medicating.
Patients with elevated bilirubin should maintain regular daily routines and follow a light diet. They should avoid greasy, spicy, and irritating foods such as chili peppers, spicy hot pot, garlic, and onions, which may加重 the burden on the gastrointestinal tract and interfere with treatment.
