Hello
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Please note down the indication for which URSOCOL i.e. ursodeoxycholic acid is prescribed.
1 Dissolution of cholesterol-rich gallstones .
2 primary biliary cirrhosis .
3 Prophylaxis of gallstones in patients undergoing rapid weight loss.
In my opinion it will not resolve fatty liver .
Get in M R I of liver and consult gastroenterologist and find out the exact reason of fatty liver and then proceed.
Good luck.
