Description
Livcare-300 is a high-potency therapeutic tablet containing Ursodeoxycholic Acid (300 mg), a naturally occurring bile acid used to treat and manage various cholestatic liver diseases. By improving bile flow and protecting liver cells from toxic bile acids, Livcare-300 helps in restoring healthy liver function and preventing further hepatic damage.
Key Active Ingredient: Ursodeoxycholic Acid (300 mg)
Ursodeoxycholic Acid (UDCA) is a clinically proven hepatoprotective agent that works through three primary mechanisms:
-
Protection of Liver Cells: It replaces toxic, hydrophobic bile acids that can damage cell membranes, thereby protecting hepatocytes from inflammation and scarring.
-
Stimulation of Bile Flow: It helps move bile through the liver and into the gallbladder and intestines, preventing bile stasis (cholestasis).
-
Immune Modulation: It reduces the expression of certain inflammatory markers in the liver, slowing the progression of autoimmune liver conditions.
Therapeutic Indications
Livcare-300 is highly effective for the following conditions:
-
Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC): The first-line treatment to slow the progression of chronic liver disease.
-
Dissolution of Gallstones: Effective for dissolving small, radiolucent cholesterol gallstones in patients who cannot undergo surgery.
-
Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD): Supports the reduction of liver enzymes and improves hepatic metabolic health.
-
Cholestasis of Pregnancy: Helps manage bile acid levels to relieve severe itching and protect fetal health.
-
Cystic Fibrosis-Related Liver Disease: Improves bile secretion in affected patients.
