Hello

11 mm gall bladder calculus is not expected to get dissolved with udiliv.
Udiliv may be given initial trail in small calculus,patient not willing for surgery etc.
I suggest for definitive treatment for gall bladder stones.
Definitive treatment is surgical removal of gall bladder(cholecystectomy).
Gall bladder calculus are prone to infection and obstruction,so it is wise to get rid of it.
Gall bladder calculus usually doesn't respond to medical management.

Now a days,operation is done laproscopically,it doesn't cause ugly scar.Recovery is also fast by this method.
You friend may choose this method.

Get well soon.
Take Care
