Should I take GALLMET bile acid capsules as a course of treatment or continuously?

If you have had gallbladder surgery, we recommend taking them continuously, as the gallbladder no longer stores the bile produced, but is constantly being drained into the duodenum. This means that when you eat, there is not enough bile available for proper digestion and you will be in a state of bile deficiency.

If you have gallstones, we recommend taking it continuously, because it relieves gallstones symptoms (bloating, pain under the right rib cage, pain radiating to the back, diarrhoea or constipation, lightening of the stools) and can completely dissolve cholesterol stones smaller than about 15 mm.

If you have digestive problems periodically, you can take it as a cure. If the symptoms stop, you can stop taking it. If the symptoms reappear, you may want to start taking it again.
