Suggest Remedy For Itching, Swelling And Weight Gain Post Intake Of Actigall Tablet

I had bariatric gastric sleeve surgery done on Aug 7, 2015. They put me on Actigall//Ursodiol 300mg 1 week after my surgery because I still have my gall bladder. I m supposed to be on it 6 months but I am having severe adverse reactions to the medicine the longer I am on it. Extreme itching, swelling and the dreaded weight gain, I had lost 26lbs but have gained back 7lbs. Is there something else that I can take besides the Actigall/Ursodiol?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, more or less all the pharmaceutical molecule belongs to this group of drug may have the same side effects more or less, so in my opinion you can continue the same, because side effects could be reversible, or else have a word with, your surgeon, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
