Ursodeoxycholic acid is absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract by passive diffusion. The extent of hepatic absorption is reduced in the presence of liver disease. Distribution: Upon entering the liver, Ursobil combines with glycine or taurine and then into the bile. Enteric enzymes in the ileum can break down this conjugate and form free ursodeoxycholic acid that can be recombined or reabsorbed in the liver. Metabolism: Unabsorbed Ursobil is dehydroxylated to lithocholic acid in the colon. Part of the ursodeoxycholic acid is converted to chenodiol, and then to lithocholic acid. Elimination: Ursobl is excreted in the bile as a glycoconjugate or sulfate moiety and in the feces.
