Frequently asked questions FOR Udcament 125mg/5ml Oral Suspension

Ursodeoxycholic Acid

Q. When should I take Udcament Oral Suspension?
The suitable timing of taking this medicine might differ depending on your condition. Your doctor might instruct you to take 2 to 3 doses per day and suggest taking the last dose at bedtime. Udcament Oral Suspension should be taken with water or milk after food. When prescribed for dissolving gallstones, it is usually suggested to be taken once daily at night.
Q. Is Udcament Oral Suspension safe?
Udcament Oral Suspension is usually considered to be a safe and effective medicine. However, this medicine may have some common side effects, such as diarrhea. If diarrhea occurs, your doctor may reduce the dose, and if it persists, your treatment may be discontinued. Additionally, using this medicine as a long-term therapy may also affect your liver enzyme levels. To keep a check on this, your doctor will keep monitoring your liver enzyme levels regularly. Despite these minor side effects, this medicine is supposed to be a good alternative to surgery in some patients with gallstones.
Q. How does Udcament Oral Suspension help the liver?
Udcament Oral Suspension acts on the liver and gets concentrated in the bile secreted from the liver. This, as a result, suppresses the synthesis and secretion of cholesterol by the liver, thereby decreasing the cholesterol levels in bile. This medicine also acts by stopping the intestines from absorbing the bile salts and cholesterol. So, the reduced cholesterol saturation in the bile from the liver leads to the gradual dissolving of cholesterol from gallstones, leading to a decrease in size and their eventual dissolution. It also reduces elevated liver enzyme levels by increasing the bile flow through the liver, hence protecting the liver cells.

Q. Does Udcament Oral Suspension cause weight gain?
Yes, there is a chance of weight gain with Udcament Oral Suspension, but it is not common. The use of Udcament Oral Suspension can cause weight gain when prescribed in patients with liver disease associated with chronic stasis of bile in the small bile ducts of the liver. In such conditions, bile cannot flow from the liver to the small intestine. Again, the chance of weight gain varies from person to person depending on the disease, so consult your doctor if you experience weight gain.
Q. What should I avoid while taking Udcament Oral Suspension?
While taking Udcament Oral Suspension, avoid taking an antacid preparation without consulting your doctor, as they decrease the effectiveness of Udcament Oral Suspension. You should also avoid medicines like cholestyramine or colestipol, as they affect the effectiveness of Udcament Oral Suspension. Ask your doctor about the time gap that should be maintained between Udcament Oral Suspension and these medicines. Also, avoid taking oral contraceptives, estrogenic hormones, and blood cholesterol-lowering agents such as clofibrate, as they may increase the chances of developing gallstones and act opposite to the Udcament Oral Suspension.
