ATH code A05A X.

Allochol improves the secretory function of liver cells, causing a moderate choleretic effect. Stimulates the synthesis of bile acids; increases the osmotic gradient between bile and blood, which leads to increased filtration of water and electrolytes into the bile capillaries; accelerates the flow of bile through the biliary tract, prevents the spread of infection and reduces the intensity of the inflammatory process; reduces the possibility of cholesterol precipitation in the sediment with the subsequent formation of stones. The process of cholate formation occurs mainly due to taurocholic and deoxycholic acids contained in dry bile. An increase in the release of bile into the intestinal lumen contributes to a reflex increase in the secretory and motor activity of the digestive tract, improves the emulsification of dietary fats and, in general, digestion processes.

As part of complex treatment:

• chronic cholecystitis;
• dyskinesia of the gallbladder;
• postcholecystectomy syndrome;
• atonic constipation;
• uncomplicated cholesterosis of the gallbladder.

• Hypersensitivity to the components of the drug;
• acute hepatitis;
• cholelithiasis;
• obstructive jaundice;
• spasm of the sphincter of Oddi;
• acute pancreatitis;
• peptic ulcer of the stomach and duodenum in the acute stage;
• acute enterocolitis.

Simultaneous use of Allochol with:

• choleretics of synthetic or vegetable origin – enhances bile formation;
• laxatives – leads to the elimination of constipation;
• fat-soluble vitamins – improves their absorption;
• antiseptics or chemotherapeutic agents – improves the therapeutic efficacy of the latter in infectious processes in the liver or biliary tract;
• preparations containing aluminum hydroxide, cholestyramine, colestipol – reduces absorption and reduces the effect of Allochol; their simultaneous reception is impractical.

Use with caution in urolithiasis.

Adults take 1-2 tablets 3-4 times a day after meals for 3-4 weeks. Then – 1 tablet 2-3 times a day after meals for 1-2 months.

If necessary, according to the doctor’s prescription, repeat the course of treatment 2-3 times with a break of 3 months.

Usually, the first signs of improvement in the condition (reduction of pain in the right hypochondrium, disappearance of dyspeptic symptoms) appear 5-8 days after the start of treatment.
