Ursodiol

I was diagnosed with PBC in July 2021. I have been on Urso since my diagnosis. I take 600 mg daily. I had lab a week ago & don't have the results but I decided to quit the Urso. My liver enzymes has never gotten anywhere near normal. They have come down. I'm just stopping the Urso for a few months & then have lab drawn. I have GI problems so I will see if Ur so is the problem.

i have taken 1200 mg for the last several years and it has brought me back to normal. I had quit it for several years and the levels were high. When i went back on it at 1200 every thing leveled out. I was going through Mayo Clinic when i chose to restart it.

Urso is dosed by weight. 600 mg a day sounds like you’re being under dosed. Check with a pharmacist then get back with your doc.

That could be the reason you’re not seeing a change in your Labs.

You can go online to read the dosage directions.

Good Luck
