Is Ursodiol Safe To Be Used For PBC?

I have been taking Ursodiol capsules since I was discovered to have PBC. The script I received from Canada is a tablet. I have been checking and was wondering if I received the incorrect type since I see these are used for dogs. I am concerned that this change may affect me. Please advise as I feel uncomfortable using these. Ann Mecanko
