Ursodeoxycholate (UDCA) is widely used for the treatment of cholestatic liver disease. After oral administration, UDCA is absorbed, taken up efficiently by hepatocytes, and conjugated mainly with glycine to form glycoursodeoxycholate (GUDC) or partly with taurine to form tauroursodeoxycholate (TUDC)
