Dear Mr Saha Although Ursocol is used to treat fatty liver but Liver function tests (γ-GT, alkaline phosphatase, AST, ALT) and bilirubin levels should be monitored every month for three months after start of therapy, and every six months thereafter. This monitoring will allow the early detection of a possible deterioration of the hepatic function. Treatment discontinuation should be considered if the above parameters increase to a level considered clinically significant in patients with stable historical liver function test levels. The following adverse reactions, presented by system organ class in alphabetical order, have been identified during postapproval use of Ursodiol. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure. • Gastrointestinal disorders: abdominal discomfort, abdominal pain, constipation, diarrhea, dyspepsia, nausea, vomiting. • General disorders and administration site conditions: malaise, peripheral edema, pyrexia. • Hepatobiliary disorders: jaundice (or aggravation of preexisting jaundice). • Immune System Disorders: Drug hypersensitivity to include facial edema, urticaria, angioedema and laryngeal edema. • Abnormal Laboratory Tests: ALT increased, AST increased, blood alkaline phosphatase increased, blood bilirubin increased, ï§-GT increased, hepatic enzyme increased, liver function test abnormal, transaminases increased. • Musculoskeletal and connective tissue disorders: myalgia • Nervous system disorders: dizziness, headache. • Respiratory, thoracic and mediastinal disorders: cough. • Skin and subcutaneous tissue disorder: alopecia, pruritus, rash With regard R K Mishra |

Dear Ranjit There are different causes of fatty liver. Eating excess calories causes fat to build up in the liver. When the liver does not process and break down fats as it normally should, too much fat will accumulate. People tend to develop fatty liver if they have certain other conditions, such as obesity, diabetes or high triglycerides. |
