Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) and Silybon 70 (Milk Thistle) can be taken with food to improve absorption.
Take UDCA with breakfast and dinner, as prescribed by your doctor.
Typical dosage: 1-2 capsulestablets (250-500 mg) 2-3 times a day.
For Silybon 70, take 1 capsule (70 mg) 2-3 times a day with meals.
Follow your doctor's specific instructions for dosage and timing.
Always consult your doctor or pharmacist for personalized guidance.
