Prescription: See your doctor to see if you are a candidate for medical therapy with something like actigall (ursodiol). Medications can take a few years to dissolve gallstones, does not work well for larger stones, and it does not work at all for calcified gallstones. Gallstones can also grow back unless you have surgery to remove the gallbladder & gallstones.

Actigall, (ursodiol) Herbs: Actigall (ursodiol) is a drug that can dissolve gallstones. Golden coin grass is a herb that can also help to dissolve gallstones. For more on this see http://www.Naturalnews.Com/032051_kidney_stones_jin_qian_cao.Html and http://www.Sensiblehealth.Com/journey-02.Xhtml it would be best to try such treatments under the supervision of a holistic md and/or acupuncturist.
