Hello,

Golbi 300 is a medication containing Ursodiol which is a bile salt. This does assist in the breakdown of gallstones. This medication typically is taken for a period of several months or longer in order to see maximal benefit. From what I have seen most symptoms of gallstones seemed to resolve by about the 3 month mark of taking this medication but some patients did take longer to see symptom resolution. The stones generally did not completely dissolve with this medication from what I have seen but they did decrease in size substantially.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. David Girardi, Internal Medicine Specialist
