Ocabile 5 Tablet contains obeticholic acid (5 mg), which works on your body as follows:

• Activates FXR: Obeticholic acid works by activating the Farnesoid X Receptor (FXR) in your body. FXR is a protein that plays a crucial role in controlling bile acid levels in your body.

• Decreases Bile Acid Synthesis: By activating FXR, obeticholic acid reduces the production of bile acids.

• Increases Bile Flow: This activation also promotes better bile flow, preventing it from getting trapped in the liver.

• Reduces Liver Inflammation and Fibrosis: The improved bile flow and reduced bile acid synthesis lead to a decrease in liver inflammation and fibrosis, improving overall liver function.
