The best analogues of Ursosan based on ursodeoxycholic acid

The drug Ursosan produced in the Czech Republic has many complete analogues produced by both Russian and foreign pharmaceutical companies. All of them are trustworthy, but not all of them can be called the best.

Top 5. Grinterol

Rating (2022): 4.38
One release form

Grinterol is available in only one dosage of 250 mg, which is convenient for many patients.

  • Average price: 1415 rubles. (100 caps. 250 mg)
  • Producer: Grindex (Latvia)

The Latvian drug Grinterol, judging by the small number of reviews, is not a popular analogue of Ursosan, but this does not mean that it does not deserve to be included in the ranking of the best. The medicine is produced in only one form - 250 mg capsules, it costs a little cheaper than other foreign analogues, but more expensive than a number of Russian ones. The hepatoprotective and choleretic effects of Grinterol are no worse than those of other ursodeoxycholic acid preparations, recommendations for therapy and dosages are identical, as well as for side effects. So far, the main drawback of Grinterol is that it is not prescribed as often as analogues, although it does not have significant differences from them.

Pros and cons
  • A drug from a well-known Latvian pharmaceutical company
  • Prices are cheaper than some analogues
  • Packs with different number of tablets
  • Few reviews
  • One dose of 250 mg

Top 4. Ursodez

Rating (2022): 4.39

  • Average price: 1050 rubles. (100 caps. 250 mg)
  • Manufacturer: North Star (Russia)

Ursodez is one of the relatively inexpensive analogues of Ursosan, which costs an average of 30% less. The cost of this drug from the pharmaceutical company "Northern Star" is all the more attractive, the greater the number of tablets in the package. One of the differences between this drug and a number of other analogues is that it is offered in capsules in both 250 mg and 500 mg dosages, while most other 500 mg ursodeoxycholic acid preparations are available in tablet form. This eliminates the possibility of dividing a large dosage, which you should definitely consider before buying. In terms of effectiveness, inexpensive Ursodez is not inferior to analogues with the same composition, at least judging by the reviews of doctors and patients.

Pros and cons
  • Attractive price
  • Positive reviews
  • Two dosages and multiple packaging options
  • Dosage 500 mg capsules

Pros and cons
  • Trusted Manufacturer

When taken as a course, Ursofalk helps dissolve gallbladder stones, relieve pain, and have a positive effect on the liver. The main disadvantage of Ursofalk is its price, which, however, is not much higher than that of Ursosan. If you need to take it for several months, the cost of treatment is not affordable for everyone. The advantage is the presence of a liquid form of release, which allows the use of the medicine even in children of the first year of life.
