Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
Oral Ursodeoxycholicacid for period of 2 years may dissolve the gall stones.
But the may recur after stopping the treatment.
Obstruction of bile ducts by gall stones may be relieved by ERS following ERCP (endoscopic proceedure) or Lithotrpsy to break stones into small particles so that they will be excreted in feces.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
