Obetohep-5 Tablet is used to manage primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) in adults. It is a single-ingredient farnesoid X receptor (FXR) agonist medicine containing obeticholic acid.
Obeticholic acid reduces bile-acid production and increases bile flow. It may be used with ursodeoxycholic acid when the response to ursodeoxycholic acid alone is inadequate, or as monotherapy when ursodeoxycholic acid is not tolerated, as prescribed.
Follow your doctor's guidance on diet and lifestyle, avoid alcohol and attend regular liver function tests to support liver health.
Before starting, tell your doctor if you have any history of liver disease or gallbladder problems, and about all other medicines, supplements or herbal products you take. Report severe itching, yellowing of the skin or eyes, or swelling promptly. Follow the prescribed dose, frequency and duration, report persistent or serious side effects, and do not stop the medicine unless your doctor advises you to do so.
