Urso can be used to treat gall stones.

Gall stones are common, I'm not sure if they're more common in PBCers. I've had my gall bladder out, but that was pre-diagnosis of PBC.

Urso slowly dissolves gallstones and is used for gallstone sufferers who are not good candidates for gallbladder surgery.

Not what you're looking for?
