I was just diagnosed with PBC last month. I am currently using this drug. I have been experiencing extreme nausea that lasts for 1 to 3 hours after taking it morning and night. I don't have any results yet so am unsure if it is working but, my experience thus far has been miserable. Hoping I acclimate soon and the nausea will go away.

After every meal, I have eccessive burbing. It does not matter as to the amount of food or the type of food or how slow I eat. I will have more than 20 minutes of continous burbing which has now caused me to socially isolate when eating with friends and family.

I have been taking Actigall, along with Colchicine, for 12 years. Still no symptoms of the disease! Prescribed by world-reknowned Gastroenterologist, specializing in this disease.

I am not sure what my diagnosis is yet. My doctor used this to help with the pain after eating. I don't have a gallbladder, but the pain is like I do. I have experienced alot of diahhrea with this drug.

My nausea has eased up after just a couple of days taking it. Not sure yet what's happening with the gallstone, I still get random pain.
