Hi,
Udiliv is not the medication for itching. Stop this medication immediately. The medication for itching due to jaundice is cholestyramine. Onesachet per day for at least 6 days till itching stops. Liver tonics like hepamerz for 4 weeks will help in regularising liver function.
I hope this naswers you querry.
