Gallstone solubilizing agents
A drug may be classified by the chemical type of the active ingredient or by the way it is used to treat a particular condition. Each drug can be classified into one or more drug classes.
Gallstone solubilizing agents are used to dissolve small non-calcified gallstones. They suppress the amount of cholesterol synthesized by the liver or inhibit the amount of cholesterol absorbed from the intestines.
They are used to breakdown gallstones in patients, who do not need to have surgery.
