[Changes in bile and blood lipid levels following chenodeoxycholic acid therapy].

Abstract:

:Original and known methods and ordinary routine tests were used to evaluate changes in bile salts, phospholipids and cholesterol and in serum lipids induced in 50 patients during treatment with chenodeoxycholic acid (2-12 mg/Kg/day) for about 15 months. No significant differences in serum lipids, though a clear fall in triglycerides was noted in those who received 7-12 mg/Kg/day as opposed to 2-7 mg/Kg/day. There was a marked fall in the molar percentage of biliary cholesterol, followed by a significant reduction in the saturation index of Metzger. Once again, greater reduction was noted in patients receiving the higher dose range. A correlation between the dose used and the percentage of cholesterol in the bile was thus evident. After treatment, chenodeoxycholic acid was the main bile acid and there was a significant fall in cholic and deoxycholic acid. The desired drug effect can be obtained with low doses (7-12 mg/Kg/day) and a biliary chenodeoxycholic value well below 90%.
