What is Ursodeoxycholic Acid used for?

This medication works by reducing cholesterol absorption and improving bile flow.
What are the side effects of Ursodeoxycholic Acid?

What does Ursodeoxycholic Acid interact with?
Ursochol may interact with medications that affect liver enzymes, such as certain cholesterol-lowering drugs or hormone therapies. Avoid taking antacids containing aluminum within 2 hours of Ursochol, as they can reduce its absorption.
