Gallbladder

[Jimmy Keller 36]

Was anyone givin medication by their surgeon or pcp to help not have gallstone or gallbladder trouble from excess weightloss and if so has it helped or any side affects

[CyndieRI 251]

My surgeon puts all her patients on medication to stop gallstones. We take it for 6 months post surgery. I’m only 2 1/2 weeks out so I don’t know if it works or not.

[The Preacher 161]

Yes, will be taking it for 6 months post surgery.

I don't actually know how long I'm supposed to take mine, but I have one that I take twice a day, with no side effects that I've noticed.

I’m on mine for six months twice a day. So far no side effects.

What medication is this, my doctor never mentioned anything about it.

Ursadiol, I always remember the name because of the Ursa part, I think of a Big Old Grizzly Bear, and Gall Bladder colic hurts about THAT bad! You feel like something is ripping and clawing at YOU.🐻
