A member asked:
I have gallastones diagnosed after ultrasonography, having 4 to 6 mm in size, can they disolve or flush by taking ursodeoxycholic acid. cbd size is 5.2 mm. ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
How many: 1 or 2 is realistic but for alot to pass or dissolve is asking more of the medication than can usually occur. Of you have lots of gallstones then the gallbladder may not have been working well to start with and may continue to cause issues and more stones. I hope this finds you well.
