OXOTIC 300

URSODEOXYCHOLIC ACID SUSTAINED RELEASE 300MG TABLET

OXOTIC 300 (Ursodeoxycholic Acid Sustained Release Tablets) contains ursodeoxycholic acid, a bile acid naturally produced by the liver. It works by reducing the cholesterol content of bile, which helps dissolve certain types of gallstones and prevents new ones from forming. Additionally, ursodeoxycholic acid improves the flow of bile in the liver, which can reduce liver inflammation and promote the normal functioning of liver cells. By gradually dissolving cholesterol deposits and protecting liver cells, OXOTIC 300 helps restore liver and gallbladder health, easing discomfort associated with liver dysfunction or gallstone-related conditions.

This medicine is generally well tolerated. Some patients may experience mild side effects like nausea, stomach discomfort, or diarrhea, which often resolve with continued use. It is important to take the tablets exactly as prescribed to achieve the best therapeutic outcome.

OXOTIC 300 is prescribed for:

  • Dissolving cholesterol-based gallstones in patients who are not candidates for surgery.
  • Managing primary biliary cholangitis (a chronic liver disease) by improving liver function and slowing disease progression.
  • Supporting bile flow in liver conditions where bile becomes thick or obstructed, reducing liver inflammation and preventing further complications.
Patients taking OXOTIC 300 often experience improvement in liver enzyme levels, better digestion, and reduced gallbladder-related discomfort over time.

The dosage of OXOTIC 300 depends on the patient’s weight, condition, and response to treatment. Typically, adults are prescribed one tablet (300 mg) once or twice daily, preferably with meals to enhance absorption.

Method of Use: Swallow the tablet whole with water. Do not crush, chew, or break the sustained-release tablet to maintain its effectiveness.

Storage: Store OXOTIC 300 in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children.

Common Side Effects: Some patients may experience mild diarrhea, nausea, stomach discomfort, or occasional bloating. These effects are usually temporary. Contact your doctor if they persist or worsen.

Drug Warnings: Patients should take OXOTIC 300 only under medical supervision. Inform your doctor if you have liver disease, gallbladder blockage, inflammation of the pancreas, or allergies to bile acids. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult a doctor before use.

Drug–Drug Interactions: OXOTIC 300 may interact with cholestyramine, antacids, or bile acid sequestrants, which can reduce its absorption. Always inform your healthcare provider about all medications, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements, to prevent reduced efficacy or side effects.

Drug–Food Interactions: OXOTIC 300 can be taken with meals. Avoid alcohol, as excessive intake can worsen liver function and interfere with the medication’s effectiveness.
