Obetohep-10 Tablet belongs to the class known as farnesoid X receptor agonists. This medicine is prescribed for adults with primary biliary cholangitis, also known as primary biliary cirrhosis in combination with ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) with an inadequate response to UDCA, or as monotherapy who are unable to tolerate UDCA.
Primary biliary cholangitis is a long-term condition where the bile ducts in your liver deteriorate gradually. As these ducts degrade, it results in a buildup of bile, a vital fluid for digestion and vitamin absorption, within the liver.
