FDA-Approved Preventative Treatment

Protect your gallbladder during weight loss

Rapid weight loss shouldn’t put your gallbladder at risk. Reltone® (ursodiol) prevents gallstone formation during your weight loss journey.

Indicate patients that have BMI > 30 and contemplating weight loss are already at higher risk of having gallstones than the general population before even starting their weight loss therapy journey. The risks of getting gallstones increase further when they experience rapid weight loss regardless of which therapy is selected (dieting, GLP-1 therapy or bariatric surgery).
