Hi @surfing, I also like to avoid medication unless it is absolutely necessary. Mayo Clinic has more information about the gallbladder cleansing that might be helpful.

"Gallstones that cause no symptoms typically require no treatment. If you have gallstones that require treatment, discuss proven treatment options with your doctor, such as surgical removal, bile salt tablets or sound wave therapy."

Here's another article that may be helpful - "If you can't or don't want to undergo surgery and your gallstones are small, one option is to take ursodiol (Actigall, Urso), a naturally occurring bile acid that helps dissolve cholesterol stones when taken by mouth two to four times a day."

Have you discussed your concerns with your doctor?

Thank you This is in response to your reply. I’m getting back late, I did get prescribed the medicine. I haven’t taken it yet. I wasn’t too sure about it after what I read. No pain no nothing just possible stones that’s why I don’t want to go on medicine and I certainly don’t want to wait to get pain to have to go on the medicine so I will look into some cleansing naturally thank you for your reply.
