Questions and Answers

What does Ursodiol do for the liver?

Ursodiol for liver disease is prescribed for patients with certain types of liver condition which result in the retention of bile within the liver. These bile acids are toxic to cell membranes within the liver, which causes more damage and worsens the initial liver disease. Urdodiol for dogs or Urso for cats is used to reverse this vicious circle and protect the liver by binding with the toxic bile acids and reducing their concentration. This is reviewed by Dr Pippa Elliott, BVMS MRCVS.

How long does it take for Urso to work in cats?

Urso for cats works to protect the liver within a few hours of dosing. However, Ursodiol for liver disease is not a treatment in its own right, and the pet will need other treatments to correct the initial cause of the liver disease. Therefore, the response to treatment will be variable and depends upon the severity of the original condition and receiving appropriate, targeted treatment. This is reviewed by Dr Pippa Elliott, BVMS MRCVS.
