Hi,

1. These medicines won't decrease the size or dissolve the stone.
2. Ursodeoxycholic acid means ursocol may help in not formation of any further stone.
3. These medicines won't have any effect in breast feeding babies as they are rarely secreted via milk.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. BarunBijoy Bhattacharjee
