Abstract

According to modern concepts, intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (IHCP) is a cholestatic liver disease that develops in II and III trimesters of pregnancy, and characterized by itching and increased concentration of bile acids in the blood serum. Currently, ursodeoxycholic acid is considered as the drug of choice for the treatment of IHCP as defined by substantial evidence of efficacy and safety of the drug within the treatment of this pathology.
