    Product Description

    Tauro-obeticholic acid is an active metabolite of obeticholic acid, which is a farnesoid X receptor (FXR) agonist and semisynthetic derivative of chenodeoxycholic acid (Item No. 10011286).1 Tauro-obeticholic acid is formed from obeticholic acid by taurine conjugation in the liver but can be reconverted back to obeticholic acid by intestinal microflora.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
