Treatment of Primary Biliary Cholangitis including Transplantation.

Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) is the first-line treatment of primary biliary cholangitis (PBC). Long-term UDCA use significantly reduces progression to cirrhosis. UDCA improves liver enzymes and transplant-free survival rates. Despite the association between PBC and hyperlipidemia, treatment is indicated under specific circumstances with statins and fibrates being safe options. Osteoporosis, which is frequently seen, is usually managed based on data from postmenopausal women. Sicca syndrome is treated similarly to its standalone condition with the use of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose eye drops and anticholinergic drugs.
