Also I am having Archol -F( Atovastatin & Fenofibrate tablets) for cholestoral & Gemer 1( Glimepiride and extended release metformin hydrochloride tablets) Doctor: Hello, You seem to be  suffering from non alcoholic fatty liver disease called as NAFLD. Although UDILIV has many side effects like nausea,vomiting,diarrhoea,joint pains etc and should not be taken along with statins,it's role in treatment of NAFLD is very doubtful. UDILIV is basically used in treatment of gall stones.  The best treatment for NAFLD is 1... Reduction of weight. 2... Regular exercises  3... Use of statins 4..meticulous control of diabetes 5.. Use of drugs like PIOZONE ( THIOZOLEDINEDIONES) is supposed to have special role in correcting insulin resistance and improving liver histology. Discuss with your doctor regarding the treatment. Thanks
