Hi and welcome to HCM. Thanks for the query.
There are no tablets for such condtition. It seems like there is stricture and fibrosis of bile duct due to surgery. There is a option to do surgery called hepaticojejunostomy which may lead to some improvement but there are o medications which can provide cure.
Wish you good health. Regards
