Rowachol Caps 50S

Product Description:

• Rowachol contains essential oils that help to dissolve or break up


• cholesterol-based gallstones. It also reduces the cholesterol content of bile,


• an important digestive juice that is formed in the liver. This may enable


• existing gallstones to dissolve and help prevent new gallstones from


• forming. Rowachol also increases bile production and relaxes the bile


• ducts. This helps reduce painful spasms of the bile ducts. It also makes it


• easier for any gallstones present to be passed out (expelled) with the bile.


• Rowachol Capsules are intended for use in the breaking up (dissolving or


• disintegrating) or passage (expulsion) of gallstones. Use in combination


• with a medicine called chenodeoxycholic acid.

How to use:

• Always take Rowachol exactly as your doctor has told you.


• You should check with your doctor or pharmacist if you are not sure.


• Rowachol must only be taken by swallowing the whole capsule.


• Do not bite or chew the capsules.


• The usual dose for adults:


• Take 1 – 2 capsules three times daily, half an hour before meals. When


• you first start treatment, a dose of one capsule three times daily is


• recommended. Ask your doctor or pharmacist about this.

Caution & Warnings:

• Like all medicines, Rowachol can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them.


• A small number of patients have noted side effects such as:


• belching and a peppermint taste after taking the capsules. (This can be


• reduced or avoided if you take the capsules on an empty stomach thirty


• minutes before meals).


• mouth ulcers or soreness of the mouth during treatment with


• Rowachol. If you notice this, consult your doctor.
