Obetohep 10mg Tablet

396.00 /-

Obetohep 10mg Tablet is used in the treatment of primary biliary cirrhosis (also known as primary biliary cholangitis), a chronic liver disease that causes progressive damage to the bile ducts. The medication is designed to help improve liver function by inhibiting the production of bile acid and enhancing its removal from the liver. By reducing bile acid levels in the liver, Obetohep prevents the toxic effects of excess bile acid, thus helping to protect the liver from further damage.

Obetohep 10mg Tablet is typically prescribed either as a standalone therapy or in combination with other medicines. It is particularly effective in delaying or preventing liver damage when started early in the disease process. In most cases, Obetohep will be taken for the long term, possibly for the rest of the patient’s life.

Salt Composition:

  • Obeticholic Acid (10mg)

Salt Composition:

How Obetohep Works:

Obetohep contains Obeticholic acid (10mg), which works by stimulating the Farnesoid X receptor (FXR), a chemical that regulates bile acid synthesis, transport, lipid metabolism, and glucose levels. By inhibiting bile acid synthesis and increasing its secretion, Obeticholic acid helps to reduce the overall bile acid pool in the liver. This reduces the toxic effects of bile acid buildup, which improves liver function and helps prevent further liver damage in individuals with primary biliary cirrhosis.

Key Uses:

  • Primary biliary cirrhosis (Primary biliary cholangitis): Used to treat and manage this chronic liver condition, helping to prevent liver damage and delay disease progression.

  3. Long-Term Use: Once prescribed, Obetohep is typically taken long-term, providing ongoing protection and management of the liver condition.
