Rarely: Ursodiol is not an antibiotic, it is a bile acid, usually it is used to dissolve gallstones or treat primary biliary cirrhosis. In rare case it can worsen liver function but can help liver function too, and more commonly does do so. See:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ursodeoxycholic_acid and also see https://www.medicines.org.uk/emc/medicine/7313
