"Have suffered with on-and-off itching my whole life, and antihistamines do not work as it is caused by overproduction of bile in my body. Doctors cannot figure out what is wrong with me, but this stuff has been the best thing to help reduce the itching. I have only been taking this for a couple of days, but I would say my itching has decreased a lot, but I still have a bit of jaundice. I think after another week's use, I will be good, so I would definitely recommend it if you have unexplained pruritus caused by bile salts."

"I had a rectal rash that pain pills were almost useless on, and within 2 days of taking this medicine, my rash was gone. If I only take 1/2 dose a day, my rash reappears and is quite painful. I was told that due to having no gallbladder, my bile production doesn't vary according to the quantity of food consumed, so I need to regulate it myself. This has done the job well."
