Guest guest Posted January 2, 2007 Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 In PBC, Urssodoil helps thin the bile to enable it it to pass through the narrowing bile ducts in the liver (I'm assuming that the ducts could sustain damage from this.too). sharon93_19008 <sfgordon93@...> wrote: > > The state medicare dropped my girlfriends insurance coverage and she > hasn't taken this pill for a week.

If it's for PBC, I'm guessing stopping it will cause a flare. I don't know if it's one of the meds that has to be gradually withdrawn. Maybe she can get low cost or free meds from the pharmaceutical company as several here are doing. Sharon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
