Research Excerpts

Overview

Epomediol (EPO) is a synthetic terpenoid compound shown to be active in increasing bile flow and some enzymatic activities of liver plasma membranes in the rat. It has been reported to reverse 17alpha-ethinyloestradiol-induced cholestasis and to have a choleretic effect related to the biliary secretion of epomediol glucuronide.
