Hello,

Welcome to HCM and thank you for the query
I appreciate your concern for your daughter and am happy that her jaundice is resolved and that her liver functions are normal. You had not mentioned what the cause of jaundice was? Whether she should be continued on Ursocol depends on the cause of jaundice . For example if she has biliary atresia , she would require to continue the medication.
Her doctor is the best judge for that and you should follow his/her advice.
Best wishes for the good health of your daughter.
If you have more queries, you are welcome. I am available at HCM web site.
