Urologist 's  Response
Hi,

Thanks for consulting HealthcareMagic.

Some of the side effects of ursodiol include diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting etc. However, the problem of blood in the toilet bowl need to be addressed as soon as possible. We need to run investigations like stool examination, complete urine examination and ultrasound abdomen depending on physical exam findings.

As you also have severe headache, all these symptoms may or may not be related to the medications you are taking. But the problem needs to be addressed at the earliest.

Hope I have answered your query. Wish you a good health!
