About Apetase Sugar Free Solution

Apetase Sugar Free Solution belongs to the class of cholesterol-lowering agents primarily used to treat and prevent fatty liver disease and other liver-related disorders like hepatotoxicity. Apetase Sugar Free Solution also helps improve occasional constipation, loss of appetite, and indigestion. Fatty liver disease, also known as hepatic steatosis, is a medical condition associated with a build-up of fat in liver cells. Hepatotoxicity is referred to as liver damage caused by exposure to drugs. 

Apetase Sugar Free Solution is composed of two medicines: Sorbitol (laxative) and Tricholine citrate (bile acid-binding agent). Sorbitol is a laxative with a diuretic (urine producing) and cathartic (that stimulates defecation) properties. It helps treat constipation. Tricholine citrate is a bile acid-binding agent that removes excess bile acids from the body. This makes the liver utilize the body's cholesterol in producing bile acid, thus lowering the cholesterol levels in the body.

Medicinal Benefits

Apetase Sugar Free Solution is used to treat and prevent fatty liver disease and other liver-related disorders like hepatotoxicity. It contains Sorbitol (laxative) and Tricholine citrate (bile acid-binding agent). Sorbitol is a laxative with a diuretic (urine producing) and cathartic (that stimulates defecation) properties. It helps treat constipation. Tricholine citrate is a bile acid-binding agent that removes excess bile acids from the body. Due to this, the liver utilizes the body's cholesterol to produce more bile acids, thus lowering the body's cholesterol levels. Tricholine citrate may cause constipation as its side effect. Administering Sorbitol, along with Tricholine citrate, helps in relieving constipation and other digestive problems.
