Description:
Obetohep 5mg Tablet is used alone or in combination with other medications to treat primary biliary cirrhosis, a chronic liver condition. It works by improving liver function through the inhibition of bile acid production and enhancing its removal from the liver. This reduces the overall bile acid levels in the liver, helping to prevent its toxic effects on liver cells. Obetohep 5mg Tablet can be taken with or without food, but it should be taken regularly at evenly spaced intervals, as directed by your doctor.
Taking it at the same time each day can help maintain consistent levels in your body and improve treatment effectiveness. It is important to complete the full prescribed course, even if you start to feel better, and not to stop the medication without your doctor’s advice. Common side effects may include itching, fatigue, rash, sore throat, dizziness, constipation, joint pain, eczema, and thyroid-related issues.
If any of these side effects persist or worsen, consult your doctor promptly. Before starting Obetohep, inform your doctor of any existing medical conditions or ongoing medications, as these could interact with the treatment. Additionally, if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult your doctor before using this medicine.
