This reduces the bile acid in the liver and hence prevents its toxic effects.

Side Effects

No common side effects listed

Eticholic 10mg Tablet stimulates Farnesoid X receptor (FXR), a chemical that regulates synthesis and transport of bile acid, lipid metabolism and regulation of glucose levels. It inhibits bile acid synthesis and increases bile acid secretions, reducing the bile acid pool in the liver and hence preventing its toxic effects.
