Abstract
|
|
|
A clinical observation on the effect of Cholipin, which contains both a choleretic and an antispasmodic component, was performed in 29 patients with hepatobiliary disease.
Sixteen patients were medical cases diagnosed as cholecystitis, cholelithiasis, intrahepatic stone, viral hepatitis or liver cirrhosis, and the remaining 13 patients were surgical cases which underwent operation due to biliary tract disease.
Each subject received two sugar coated tablets of Cholipin by mouth, three times daily. Duration of the treatment ranged from one to two weeks.
A remarkable relief of subjective symptoms and clinical findings such as upper abdominal pain, tenderness, dyspepsia, nausea, jaundice was experienced in 24 patients (92.3%).
A significant decrease in the serum bilirubin level was observed in almost all patients except in two cases, in which cholestatic viral hepatitis was diagnosed. E No serious side effects were observed throughout the trial.
