Ursodeoxycholic acid (Tablets, Capsules) Instructions for Use
ATC Code
A05AA02 (Ursodeoxycholic acid)
Active Substance
Ursodeoxycholic acid (Rec.INN registered by WHO)
Clinical-Pharmacological Group
Hepatoprotective agent with choleretic and cholelitholytic action
Pharmacotherapeutic Group
Preparations affecting the digestive tract and metabolism; preparations for the treatment of liver and biliary tract diseases; preparations for the treatment of gallbladder diseases; bile acid preparations
Pharmacological Action
Hepatoprotector. Ursodeoxycholic acid is a bile acid. It reduces the cholesterol content in bile primarily by dispersing cholesterol and forming a liquid crystalline phase. It affects the enterohepatic circulation of bile salts, reducing the intestinal reabsorption of endogenous, more hydrophobic and potentially toxic compounds.
In vitro studies have shown that Ursodeoxycholic acid has a direct hepatoprotective effect and reduces the hepatotoxicity of hydrophobic bile salts.
It affects immunological reactions by reducing the pathological expression of HLA class I antigens on hepatocytes and suppressing the production of cytokines and interleukins.
Ursodeoxycholic acid reduces the lithogenic index of bile by increasing its bile acid content. It promotes partial or complete dissolution of cholesterol gallstones when taken orally. It has a choleretic effect.
Pharmacokinetics
After oral administration, Ursodeoxycholic acid is rapidly absorbed in the jejunum and the proximal part of the ileum by passive diffusion, and in the distal part of the ileum by active transport. Approximately 60-80% is absorbed.
After absorption, the bile acid is almost completely conjugated in the liver with glycine and taurine and excreted in the bile. Up to 60% is metabolized during the first pass through the liver.
Depending on the daily dose, the type of disease, or the condition of the liver, a greater or lesser amount of ursodeoxycholic acid accumulates in the bile. Under the action of intestinal bacteria, Ursodeoxycholic acid is partially broken down to form 7-keto-lithocholic and lithocholic acids.
The T1/2 of ursodeoxycholic acid is 3.5-5.8 days.
Indications
Cholesterol gallstones in the gallbladder and common bile duct in patients when surgical or endoscopic treatment is not possible. Cholesterol stones of the gallbladder and common bile duct with a diameter of no more than 1.5-2 cm after extracorporeal lithotripsy or mechanical lithotripsy.

Acute hepatitis, cystic fibrosis, congenital biliary atresia. Biliary reflux esophagitis and gastritis. Biliary dyspeptic syndrome in cholecystopathy and biliary dyskinesia. Prevention and treatment of cholestatic syndrome caused by the use of hormonal contraceptives. To normalize liver function in patients receiving cytostatic therapy, as well as in patients with alcoholic liver disease, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis. Liver and other organ transplantation (adjuvant therapy).

Dosage Regimen
| The method of application and dosage regimen for a specific drug depend on its form of release and other factors. The optimal dosage regimen is determined by the doctor. It is necessary to strictly adhere to the compliance of the dosage form of a specific drug with the indications for use and dosage regimen. |
Administer orally with a small amount of water. Take with food to improve tolerability and enhance bile acid incorporation.
For cholesterol gallstone dissolution, the typical adult dose is 10-12 mg/kg body weight per day, administered as a single evening dose or in two divided doses. Continue treatment until stones are dissolved, confirmed by ultrasound, plus an additional 3 months. Assess dissolution progress via ultrasound or oral cholecystography after 6-10 months of therapy.
For primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), the recommended adult dose is 13-15 mg/kg body weight per day, administered in two to four divided doses. Titrate the dose gradually over the first few months to the recommended dose to improve gastrointestinal tolerability. Treatment is typically long-term.
For other cholestatic liver diseases and hepatopathies, the usual adult dose ranges from 10-15 mg/kg per day in divided doses. Adjust the dose based on clinical response and biochemical markers.
In pediatric patients, calculate the dose based on body weight. Use only dosage forms appropriate for the child’s age and ability to swallow. Adhere strictly to age-specific contraindications listed in the product labeling for the specific formulation.
For biliary reflux gastritis/esophagitis, the typical adult dose is 250 mg per day, administered in the evening. The duration of treatment is usually 10-14 days, which may be repeated.
Divide the total daily dose if it exceeds one tablet or capsule. Do not crush or chew enteric-coated tablets. Swallow capsules whole.
Monitor liver function tests (ALT, AST, ALP, GGT, bilirubin) every 4 weeks for the first 3 months of treatment, then every 3 months thereafter. In patients with PBC, monitor for clinical signs of decompensation, especially in late-stage disease.
Reduce the dose if persistent diarrhea occurs. Discontinue therapy if diarrhea persists despite dose reduction. In gallstone dissolution therapy, discontinue if no reduction in stone size is observed after 12 months of treatment.
Adverse Reactions
From the digestive system: frequently – unformed stools or diarrhea; very rarely when treating primary biliary cirrhosis – acute pain in the right upper quadrant of the abdomen.
From the liver and biliary tract: very rarely – calcification of gallstones, when treating advanced stages of primary biliary cirrhosis – decompensation of liver cirrhosis, which disappears after discontinuation of ursodeoxycholic acid.
From the skin and subcutaneous tissues: very rarely – allergic reactions, urticaria.
Contraindications
Hypersensitivity to ursodeoxycholic acid and other bile acids; X-ray positive (high calcium content) gallstones, impaired contractility of the gallbladder, acute inflammatory diseases of the gallbladder and bile ducts, decompensated liver cirrhosis, severe hepatic and/or renal failure, occlusion of the biliary tract (occlusion of the common bile duct or cystic duct), frequent episodes of biliary colic; unsuccessful portoenterostomy or cases of no restoration of normal bile flow in children with biliary atresia; pediatric age – depending on the dosage form.
Use in Pregnancy and Lactation
Ursodeoxycholic acid should not be used during pregnancy.
Use of the drug by women of childbearing potential is only possible if they use reliable methods of contraception. It is recommended to use non-hormonal contraceptives or oral contraceptives with low estrogen content, since hormonal oral contraceptives may enhance gallstone formation. Possible pregnancy should be excluded before starting treatment.
Use during breastfeeding is possible if indicated, at recommended doses.
Use in Hepatic Impairment
Contraindicated in some liver diseases.
Use in Renal Impairment
Contraindicated in severe renal failure.
Pediatric Use
Contraindicated in cases of unsuccessful portoenterostomy or in the absence of restoration of normal bile flow in children with biliary atresia.
Use in children is possible if indicated, at doses and in dosage forms appropriate for age and body weight. It is necessary to strictly follow the instructions in the ursodeoxycholic acid drug labels regarding contraindications for use in children of different ages for specific dosage forms of ursodeoxycholic acid.
Special Precautions
Treatment with ursodeoxycholic acid should be carried out under medical supervision. During the first 3 months of treatment, liver function tests should be monitored: transaminases, ALP and GGT in blood serum every 4 weeks, and then every 3 months. Monitoring these parameters allows for the detection of liver dysfunction at an early stage. This also applies to patients in the late stages of primary biliary cirrhosis. Furthermore, this allows for quick determination of whether a patient with primary biliary cirrhosis is responding to the treatment.
When using ursodeoxycholic acid to dissolve cholesterol gallstones, in order to assess treatment progress and for the timely detection of signs of stone calcification depending on their size, the gallbladder should be visualized (oral cholecystography) with examination of opacities in the standing and supine positions (ultrasound) 6-10 months after the start of treatment. If the gallbladder cannot be visualized on X-rays or in cases of stone calcification, weak gallbladder contractility, or frequent colic attacks, ursodeoxycholic acid should not be used.
When treating patients in the late stages of primary biliary cirrhosis, cases of decompensation of liver cirrhosis have been very rarely reported. After discontinuation of therapy, partial regression of decompensation manifestations was observed.
In patients with diarrhea, the dose of ursodeoxycholic acid should be reduced. If diarrhea persists, treatment should be discontinued.
Drug Interactions
With simultaneous use, cholestyramine, colestipol, and antacids containing aluminum hydroxide or smectite (aluminum oxide) reduce the absorption of ursodeoxycholic acid in the intestine and thus reduce its effectiveness. If it is necessary to use these agents simultaneously, they should be taken at least 2 hours before taking ursodeoxycholic acid.
With simultaneous use, Ursodeoxycholic acid may enhance the absorption of cyclosporine from the intestine. The concentration of cyclosporine in the blood should be monitored and its dose adjusted if necessary when using this combination.
A case of decreased plasma concentration of ciprofloxacin in a patient receiving ursodeoxycholic acid has been described.
With simultaneous use, hypolipidemic drugs (especially clofibrate), estrogens, neomycin, or progestins increase the saturation of bile with cholesterol and may reduce the ability of ursodeoxycholic acid to dissolve cholesterol gallstones.
With simultaneous use, Ursodeoxycholic acid reduces the Cmax and AUC of nitrendipine. An increase in the dose of nitrendipine may be required.
