Usage

What is Tauroursodeoxycholic acid?

Tauroursodeoxycholic acid[TUDCA], the more hydrophilic form of ursodeoxycholic acid[UDCA], is the more abundant naturally produced bile acid in humans. Moreover, tauroursodeoxycholic acid is found in bears with high amount and has been used for centuries as a natural remedy in some Asian countries. It has been approved in Italy and Turkey for the treatment of cholesterol gallstones and as well as being investigational drug in China, Unites States, and Italy.
